Ingredients
Scale
Blueberries
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
Yogurt Coating
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (or any yogurt of your choice)
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare Blueberries: Wash and dry the blueberries thoroughly, removing any stems to ensure each berry is clean and ready for dipping.
- Mix Yogurt Coating: In a mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup and vanilla extract, stirring until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Dip Blueberries: Carefully dip each blueberry into the yogurt mixture, making sure each one is evenly coated with a generous layer of yogurt.
- Arrange for Freezing: Place the yogurt-coated blueberries onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, spacing them out to prevent sticking.
- Freeze: Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and allow the blueberries to freeze for at least 2 hours, or until the yogurt coating is firm to the touch.
- Store: Once frozen, transfer the frozen yogurt-dipped blueberries into an airtight container and store in the freezer for up to 2 weeks, ready for a quick, delicious snack anytime.
Notes
- Use plain Greek yogurt for a thicker coating; any yogurt of choice can be substituted based on preference.
- Honey or maple syrup can be adjusted or omitted depending on desired sweetness.
- Ensure blueberries are dry to help yogurt stick better.
- Consume frozen for best texture and flavor.
- Can be served as a healthy dessert, snack, or added to smoothies for extra flavor and nutrition.
