Giada De Laurentiis Blueberry Frozen Yogurt Ingredients

• 1 pound of frozen blueberries, thawed
• 1 tablespoon of honey
• 1/3 cup of honey
• Two 3-inch-long sprigs of fresh thyme
• 2 cups of chilled plain whole-milk Greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup of agave syrup
• 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice

How To Make Giada Blueberry Frozen Yogurt

1. Prepare the Blueberries: Combine 1/4 cup of thawed blueberries, 2 tablespoons of water, 1 tablespoon of honey, and the thyme sprigs in a small heavy saucepan.
2. Mash the Blueberries: Coarsely mash the blueberries using a fork or a potato masher to break them up and release their juices.
3. Cook the Blueberry Mixture: Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring it to a boil, then remove it from the heat and cover it.
4. Let it Stand: Let the blueberry mixture stand covered for 15 minutes, then uncover the saucepan and let the syrup cool slightly before discarding the thyme sprigs.
5. Blend the Ingredients: Place the remaining blueberries, the remaining 1/3 cup of honey, the yogurt, the agave syrup, the lemon juice, and the cooled blueberry syrup in a blender or food processor.
6. Make it Smooth: Blend the mixture until it is almost smooth, making sure all the ingredients are well combined for a consistent texture.
7. Freeze the Mixture: Transfer the yogurt mixture to a shallow glass baking dish, cover it, and freeze it until slushy, which should take about 2 hours.
8. Finish and Serve: Using a fork, stir the mixture to blend it well, then continue to freeze until it is firm, at least 8 hours or overnight. Scrape the mixture into small serving bowls or glasses with the tines of a fork, and serve immediately.

How Do I Make Sure My Blueberry Frozen Yogurt Isn’t Too Icy?

To keep your Blueberry Frozen Yogurt from turning into a frozen block of ice, make sure to stir it every couple of hours while it’s freezing. This helps break up any ice crystals and keeps it creamy.

Recipe Tips

• Adjust Sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter yogurt, increase the amount of honey or agave syrup by a tablespoon or so. Taste the mixture before freezing to get the sweetness just right.
• Monitor Consistency: Keep an eye on the mixture as it freezes; if it becomes too hard, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving to soften it slightly.
• Blend Smoothly: For the smoothest texture, ensure that you blend the yogurt mixture thoroughly until it’s almost completely smooth. Any chunks of fruit might freeze into icy bits and affect the texture.

Recipe Variations

• Berry Blend: Swap out some of the blueberries for raspberries or strawberries to create a mixed-berry frozen yogurt. This adds a fun twist and a burst of different fruit flavors.
• Citrus Twist: Add a teaspoon of orange or lime zest to the mixture to give your frozen yogurt a zesty, citrusy kick. It brightens up the flavor and adds a refreshing touch.
• Nutty Crunch: Incorporate chopped nuts like almonds or walnuts into the frozen yogurt just before freezing. This adds a delightful crunch and extra richness to each serving.
• Spicy Kick: For a unique twist, mix in a pinch of ground cinnamon or a tiny bit of cayenne pepper. This unexpected spice can create a surprising flavor profile and elevate your dessert.

What To Serve With Blueberry Frozen Yogurt

Serve your Blueberry Frozen Yogurt with crunchy granola, toasted coconut flakes, fresh mint leaves, chopped nuts, or dark chocolate shavings.

You can also pair it with fresh fruit skewers, cinnamon sugar pita chips, creamy almond butter, zesty lime wedges, or whipped coconut cream for an exciting mix of flavors and textures.
