Blueberry Lemon Frozen Yogurt Recipe

This Blueberry Lemon Frozen Yogurt is a vibrant, no-churn dessert that perfectly balances the tartness of lemon with the sweet, jammy goodness of burst blueberries. By using full-fat Greek yogurt, we achieve a velvety texture without the need for an expensive ice cream maker. It’s a bright, antioxidant-packed treat that feels like a splurge but keeps things light.

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups full-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 3/4 cup honey or agave nectar
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch sea salt

Method
 

  1. Heat blueberries in a small pan with 1 tablespoon of honey over medium heat for 5 minutes until they burst; let cool.
  2. Zest the lemons first, then juice them into a small bowl, removing any stray seeds.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, remaining honey, lemon juice, zest, vanilla, and salt.
  4. Whisk the mixture vigorously until it is completely smooth and the honey is fully incorporated.
  5. Gently swirl the cooled blueberry mixture into the yogurt base with a knife or spatula.
  6. Pour the mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe container or a metal loaf pan.
  7. Place the container in the freezer and stir the mixture with a fork every 45 minutes for the first 2 hours.
  8. Allow the yogurt to freeze undisturbed for an additional 2 hours or until firm enough to scoop.

Notes

  • Always use fresh lemons; the bottled juice lacks the essential oils found in the zest and fresh juice.
  • If the yogurt freezes too hard, simply leave it on the counter for 10 minutes before scooping.
  • For an even smoother texture, you can process the yogurt base in a blender before adding the blueberries.
  • Store in an airtight container with a piece of plastic wrap pressed against the surface to prevent ice crystals.
