Freezing Yogurt

Make something cool for the summertime. This is a great treat for the little ones just starting dairy on up through the whole family. Use plain whole yogurt or make your own (I'm not so adventurous just yet, but it's on the list.). Mash and mix in fresh or frozen fruits and freeze in cubes or small containers. Thaw in the fridge and enjoy for a nice, cool treat.

It's also yummy to add in some vanilla extract and/or honey (age appropriate over a year). I even love yogurt with just these two ingredients and no fruit. I always buy organic, plain, whole milk yogurt and usually the kind with cream on top.

Please share your thoughts and ideas.

  1. I have been gathering some recipes on making homemade yogurt. I plan to try this weekend & make homemade frozen yogurt cubes. Yesterday I made a diced fruit salad of strawberry, blueberries & peaches to add to the finished product & put in the freezer so it will be fresh for adding! I love this idea! It's so much more healthy than ice cream & many times more cost effective too!

  2. PACountryMouse, this is inspiring. I hear it's not that difficult to make your own, so definitely come back and let me know how it works out for you. The diced fruit salad sounds like a yummy mix!
