👩🍳 Instructions
Step 1: Make the Blueberry Swirl
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine:
- ½ cup blueberries
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp lemon juice
Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until berries break down. For a thicker swirl, mix 1 tsp cornstarch with 1 tbsp water and stir it in. Let cool.
Step 2: Prepare the Yogurt Base
In a mixing bowl, whisk together:
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Add extra sweetener if preferred.
Step 3: Assemble
Spoon yogurt into silicone molds or mini muffin tins, filling each about ¾ full.
Step 4: Swirl the Blueberry
Drop a spoonful of cooled blueberry mixture onto each mold. Use a toothpick to swirl gently for a marbled effect.
Step 5: Freeze
Place the molds in the freezer for at least 3 hours or until fully firm. Pop out when ready to eat.
