Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free alternative)
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped

Optional Ingredients

  • ½ cup granola (optional, for crunch)
  • ½ cup melted dark or white chocolate (optional, for drizzle)


Instructions

  1. Combine yogurt and sweeteners: In a bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  2. Fold in strawberries: Gently fold the finely chopped fresh strawberries into the yogurt mixture to evenly distribute the fruit without breaking it down too much.
  3. Prepare the baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the yogurt bites from sticking and to make removal easier after freezing.
  4. Form yogurt bites: Drop spoonfuls of the yogurt and strawberry mixture onto the parchment-lined baking sheet, shaping each into small, round bites for easy snacking.
  5. Add granola topping: If using, sprinkle granola evenly over each yogurt bite to add a crunchy texture.
  6. Freeze the bites: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and allow the bites to freeze for at least 2 hours, or until they become firm and hold their shape.
  7. Drizzle with chocolate (optional): If desired, drizzle the frozen bites with melted dark or white chocolate, then return them to the freezer for an additional 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set properly.
  8. Store the finished bites: Once fully frozen, transfer the yogurt bites to an airtight container for convenient storage and easy access whenever you want a refreshing treat.
  9. Serve and enjoy: Enjoy these cooling strawberry yogurt bites straight from the freezer as a healthy snack or dessert option.

Notes

  • You can substitute Greek yogurt with any dairy-free yogurt to make this recipe vegan and lactose-free.
  • Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of honey or maple syrup according to your taste preference.
  • Ensure bites are fully frozen before removing from the baking sheet to prevent them from falling apart.
  • Granola adds texture but can be omitted for a smoother bite or if you prefer a gluten-free option by using gluten-free granola.
  • Store the bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to two weeks for best freshness.
