Ingredients
Scale
Yogurt Base
- 1½ cups (370g) plain Greek yogurt (2% or full-fat for extra creaminess)
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (or erythritol for a keto-friendly version)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Blueberry Layer
- ¾ cup (100g) fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon honey (optional)
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Blueberry Compote: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the blueberries, lemon juice, and optional honey. Cook for 5–6 minutes, stirring frequently until the berries soften and release their juices. Lightly mash with a spoon to create a jam-like texture. Remove from heat and stir in chia seeds if using. Allow the compote to cool completely.
- Make the Yogurt Base: In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and honey until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust sweetness as needed for your preference.
- Assemble the Bites: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the yogurt mixture into each cavity of a silicone mini muffin or ice cube tray, filling about ¾ full. Add ½ teaspoon of the cooled blueberry compote on top of each yogurt portion. Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the compote into the yogurt, creating a marbled effect.
- Freeze: Place the tray flat in the freezer and freeze for at least 2 hours or until the bites are firm.
- Serve & Store: Carefully remove the bites from the molds. If needed, let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to ease removal. Store in an airtight container in the freezer. Let sit at room temperature for 2–4 minutes before serving to soften slightly.
Notes
- Keto-Friendly: Replace honey with erythritol or stevia.
- Extra Protein: Fold ½ scoop of vanilla or unflavored whey protein into the yogurt base.
- Fruit Variations: Substitute blueberries with raspberries, strawberries, or mango for different flavors.
- Added Texture: Sprinkle crushed almonds, coconut flakes, or granola on top before freezing.
