- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey adjust to taste, optional
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
Equipment
- parchment paper
- baking sheet
Instructions
Blueberry Swirl
- In a small saucepan, combine blueberries, maple syrup (if using), and a splash of water, then cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until berries burst and form a slightly thick compote.
- Mash some of the berries for a smoother swirl, then remove from heat and let cool completely.
Combine Yogurt
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract (if using) until the mixture is smooth.
Swirl It Up
- Pour the cooled blueberry compote gently over the yogurt, then use a spoon or knife to create swirls, being careful not to fully mix it in to maintain distinct streaks.
Form the Bites
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, then drop spoonfuls of the swirled yogurt mixture onto the paper, forming small, bite-sized dollops.
Freeze and Store
- Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 2-3 hours until the yogurt bites are completely solid.
- Once frozen, carefully peel the bites off the parchment paper and transfer them to an airtight freezer-safe container or bag for storage.
Notes
For a richer flavor, you can use full-fat Greek yogurt. Adjust the sweetness of the compote to your liking. These yogurt bites are best enjoyed frozen and can be stored in the freezer for up to 2-3 weeks.
