Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups plain Greek yogurt full-fat for creaminess
  • 1 cup raspberries fresh or frozen, unthawed if frozen
  • cup honey or maple syrup adjust to taste
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
  • Pinch of salt
Optional toppings: fresh raspberries, lemon zest curls, crushed graham crackers

Method
 

Blend the Base
  1. Add Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and salt to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust sweetness.
Add the Raspberries
  1. Add raspberries to the blender. Pulse a few times for chunky streaks of berry, or blend fully for a smooth pink color.
Freeze the Mixture
  1. With ice cream maker: Pour the mixture in and churn according to the machine’s instructions until it reaches a soft-serve texture. Transfer to a container and freeze 2–3 hours.
  2. Without ice cream maker: Pour into a freezer-safe container, cover, and freeze for 3–4 hours. Stir every 45 minutes in the first 2–3 hours to reduce ice crystals.
Serve and Enjoy
  1. Scoop into bowls or cones. Add optional toppings if desired.

Notes

  • Full-fat Greek yogurt makes a smoother, creamier texture.
  • Raspberries can be swapped for strawberries or blueberries.
  • If you like softer frozen yogurt, let it sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before scooping.
  • Always taste your mixture before freezing — cold dulls sweetness, so make it slightly sweeter than you’d normally like.
