And it is perfect for a Kids Cook Monday kind of a day like today. You just throw all the ingredients into the food processor, pulse a few times, and ta-da, it is ready, no waiting at all! Pretend you are at a yogurt parlor, serve with toppings in little bowls, adding sprinkles, crunch and lots of smiles.
-
1 pounds
frozen good-quality fruit like strawberries, raspberries, or mangoes, do not defrost!
-
1/2 cup
honey, more or less depending on how sweet you are
-
1 cup
Greek yogurt, plain
-
1 teaspoon
lemon juice, fresh
-
1 teaspoon
vanilla
-
1 pinch
salt
-
fresh fruit like strawberries, mangoes, and bananas, chopped
-
cereal, chocolate chips, chopped nuts, crunchy
- Equipment and People Needed: One little helper and one big helper , one food processor (a blender can be used, but it takes a few scrape downs with a spatula), a rubber spatula, measuring cups and spoons
- Little helper- measure out the frozen fruit and honey into a food processor.
- Big helper- quickly pulse the processor until the fruit is coarsely chopped.
- Little helper- add the yogurt, lemon juice, vanilla, and salt to the fruit.
- Big helper- process until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the bowl once or twice.
- Little helper- taste! Does it need more honey, vanilla or lemon juice? (This is a very important step, so do it thoughtfully.)
- The frozen yogurt should be firm enough to be served directly from the food processor, but if it is a little soft, let it harden in the freezer for about 30 minutes.
