Blueberry Greek Yogurt Bites (Printable)

Creamy yogurt combined with fresh blueberries creates these refreshing frozen bites.

# What You Need:

→ Yogurt Mixture

01 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, whole milk preferred
02 - 2 tablespoons honey or pure maple syrup
03 - 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

→ Fruit

04 - 1 cup fresh blueberries, washed and dried

→ Optional Garnish

05 - 1 tablespoon finely chopped almonds or pistachios
06 - 1 tablespoon unsweetened shredded coconut

# Steps:

01 - Line a baking sheet or large plate with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking during freezing.
02 - In a medium bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until completely smooth and uniform.
03 - Drop approximately 1 tablespoon portions of the yogurt mixture onto the prepared sheet, spacing them slightly apart to allow for easy removal later.
04 - Press 2 to 3 blueberries gently into the center of each yogurt mound, ensuring they are partially embedded.
05 - If using, sprinkle chopped nuts or shredded coconut over the top of each bite for added texture and flavor contrast.
06 - Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and chill for at least 2 hours until the bites are completely firm and hold their shape.
07 - Once fully frozen, remove bites from the sheet and transfer to an airtight container. Keep frozen until ready to serve.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • They taste like cheesecake but take five minutes of actual effort
  • Perfect for when you want something sweet but don't want to turn on the oven or dirty a single pan
02 -
  • The first time I made these, I didn't dry the blueberries well enough and ended up with tiny ice crystals throughout, so give them a thorough pat dry.
  • Let them sit on the counter for just a couple of minutes before eating, because straight from the freezer they're almost too firm to bite into comfortably.
03 -
  • If your yogurt mixture feels too thick to scoop easily, let it sit on the counter for about 5 minutes to soften slightly before portioning.
  • Work quickly once you start assembling, because the yogurt firms up fast once it hits the cold baking sheet.
