Yogurt Bites
It's always fun to find new ways of using the ingredients you already have in your fridge. Today's recipe not only uses items we all tend to have on hand, but it gives you 4 flavor variations and is seriously fun to make as well. It's seriously so easy to take delicious and creamy Greek yogurt, add some of your favorite fresh fruit and sweets and freeze them into these cute little bites! The results are a healthy snack that feels like a special treat without all the guilt that usually comes with sweet treats.
This is also a super fun way to get into the kitchen with your kids. They're easy enough that you don't have to worry about your kitchen being a total mess when you're done and who doesn't love a snack that tastes like you're eating frozen yogurt? You’ll want to eat these bite size treats all summer long!
Choosing Delta® Greek Yogurt
Delta® Greek Yogurt is an established brand being introduced in the U.S. for the first time. Originally available in Greece, they've been making Greek yogurt for 70 years using cultures from the island of Crete. This gives their Greek yogurt a delicious rich taste that is less sour than other Greek yogurts.
Delta also makes their yogurt according to their own patented method, which gives it its thick, creamy texture, without any added thickening agents. So, you can enjoy an authentic, non-GMO Greek yogurt with no preservatives, no artificial growth hormones, no sweeteners, no artificial flavors that's all-natural and gluten free. Plus, it's a great way to get your protein--there's 30% of an adult's daily protein in a 5.3oz cup of plain Delta® Greek Yogurt.
Tips for making Frozen Yogurt Bites
- Be sure to mix the wet ingredients well, so that you get an even flavor in each yogurt bite.
- Line your mini muffin pan with mini muffin liners for easy removal.
- I tested both paper and foil mini muffin liners (that seem to have parchment inside) and while both worked, I found the foil ones worked better. The paper was a bit more difficult to peel off the yogurt bites.
- Freeze them for at least 2 hours to make sure they're frozen through.
- When you remove the pan from the refrigerator, let them sit for 1-2 minutes to help make them easier to remove and peel.
Can I still make these if I don't have muffin liners?
Yes. Just let them sit for 3-5 minutes once you remove from the freezer to make it easier to get them out of the muffin tin.
How do I store yogurt bites?
Once frozen they can be removed from the muffin tin and placed in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
Can I make these in a regular size muffin tin?
Yes- I'd still encourage you to line the pans, but only fill them ⅓ of the way. Keep in mind you will make fewer yogurt bites this way.
