Frozen Yogurt Wild Blueberry Bites

Servings: 6 (2 bites each) Time: 20 minutes to prepare and 3-4 hours to freeze

Ingredients

For the Frozen Yogurt Bites:

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt

  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)

  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

  • 1 cup frozen wild blueberries (you can also use fresh blueberries if preferred)

For the Blueberry Swirl (Optional):

  • 1/2 cup wild blueberries (fresh or frozen)

  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

Instructions

1. Prepare the Blueberry Swirl:

  • In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of blueberries and 1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup.

  • Heat over low-medium heat, mashing the berries with a fork or potato masher until they become soft and the mixture thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes.

  • Remove from heat and let it cool. You can strain out any large pieces of skin or seeds if you prefer a smoother swirl.

2. Prepare the Frozen Yogurt Mixture:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup (adjust to your preferred sweetness), and vanilla extract.

  • Mix well until the sweetener is completely incorporated into the yogurt.

3. Add the Blueberries:

  • Gently fold in the 1 cup of frozen wild blueberries into the yogurt mixture. Make sure they are evenly distributed.

4. Assemble the Bites:

  • Line a mini muffin tin with silicone or paper liners.

  • Using a spoon, fill each liner with the yogurt and blueberry mixture. Fill them almost to the top.

5. Add the Blueberry Swirl (optional):

  • Add a small dollop of the swirl on top of each yogurt-filled liner.

  • Using a toothpick or a skewer, gently swirl the blueberry mixture into the yogurt mixture for a marbled effect.

6. Freeze:

  • Place the muffin tin in the freezer and let the bites freeze for at least 3-4 hours or until they are completely solid.

7. Serve:

  • Once frozen, remove the bites from the muffin tin and enjoy! You can keep any extras in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months.
