Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free alternative)
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped
Optional Add-ons
- ½ cup granola (optional, for crunch)
- ½ cup melted dark or white chocolate (optional, for drizzle)
Instructions
- Mix the yogurt base: In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended, ensuring the sweetness is evenly distributed.
- Fold in strawberries: Gently fold the finely chopped fresh strawberries into the yogurt mixture, taking care not to crush them to maintain texture.
- Prepare baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and to make it easy to remove the bites once frozen.
- Form bites: Using a spoon, drop spoonfuls of the yogurt-strawberry mixture onto the lined baking sheet, shaping each into small, round bite-sized mounds.
- Add granola (optional): For extra texture and crunch, sprinkle granola over each yogurt bite before freezing.
- Freeze: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze the bites for at least 2 hours, or until they are firm to the touch.
- Drizzle chocolate (optional): If desired, drizzle melted dark or white chocolate over the frozen bites, then return them to the freezer for an additional 10 minutes to let the chocolate set.
- Store: Once fully frozen and set, transfer the yogurt bites into an airtight container for storage in the freezer.
- Serve: Enjoy these refreshing strawberry yogurt bites straight from the freezer as a cool and healthy snack.
Notes
- Use Greek yogurt for a thicker texture; dairy-free alternatives like coconut or almond yogurt work well too.
- Adjust sweetness by increasing or decreasing honey or maple syrup according to taste.
- Chop strawberries finely for better incorporation and ease of spooning the mixture.
- For a nut-free option, skip granola or use seed-based granola.
- Store the yogurt bites in the freezer for up to one week for the best taste and texture.
- Allow bites to thaw a minute or two at room temperature before eating for a softer bite, if preferred.
