Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups Plain Greek yogurt full-fat recommended
  • 1/4 cup Powdered sugar or to taste
  • 1 tbsp Lemon zest from 1 large lemon
  • 2 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract optional
  • 1 cup Fresh raspberries gently mashed or chopped

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Microplane zester
  • Parchment Paper
  • Baking Sheet
  • Small Cookie Scoop
  • Freezer-safe container

Method
 

  1. Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, lemon zest, fresh lemon juice, and vanilla extract (if using). Whisk until smooth and well combined. Taste and adjust sweetness or lemon tang if desired.
  3. Gently fold in about 3/4 cup of the mashed or chopped raspberries. Be careful not to overmix, as the color will bleed significantly.
  4. Using a small cookie scoop (about 1 tbsp size) or two spoons, drop small dollops of the yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each bite.
  5. If desired, gently press a small piece of the remaining 1/4 cup fresh raspberries into the top of each yogurt bite for an extra pop of color and flavor.
  6. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 2-3 hours, or until the bites are completely solid.
  7. Once frozen, carefully peel the Lemon Raspberry Frozen Yogurt Bites off the parchment paper. Transfer them to an airtight freezer-safe container.

Notes

Store these bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2-3 weeks. For best texture, let them sit at room temperature for 1-2 minutes before serving. You can also experiment with other berries like blueberries or strawberries.
