The sweetness of summer strawberries combined with creamy yogurt gives you a delicious and fruity strawberry frozen yogurt. Perfect for those hot summer days when you want something easy, cooling and delicious!
Strawberries always represent the best of summer and this easy recipe for strawberry frozen yogurt is perfect for hot days! I love making easy ice cream recipes such as this Oreo ice cream or the no-churn pistachio ice cream and this is another favorite!
Making this delicious strawberry frozen yogurt requires only a few simple ingredients. For full instructions always check the recipe card below.
This must be one of the easiest recipes out there. You simply place all the strawberries, yogurt and the crème fraîche into the bowl of a blender or food processor and blend until you have a smooth mixture.
Add sugar to taste. I used about 4 tablespoons of sugar for this recipe, but it also depends on the sweetness of your strawberries. So adjust the added sugar as needed.
I made this recipe using an ice cream maker. If you have a machine as well, remove the frozen bowl from the freezer, place it in your machine and add the yogurt mixture. Churn this on a low setting for about 15 minutes.
You can also make this easy frozen yogurt recipe without a machine. You simply follow the instructions for making the yogurt mixture, but instead of adding it to the machine you place it in a closed freezer-safe container.
Every 30 minutes take it out of the freezer and stir the mixture through with a spoon. This prevents the formation of ice crystals. The stirring should be repeated about 6 to 8 times.
If the ice cream is not firm enough after this you can just let it sit in the freezer for longer. It’s not necessary to keep stirring after the initial actions.
Once frozen you can store your homemade ice cream in the freezer for up to three months.
If it’s been frozen for a longer time, it helps to take it out of the freezer approximately 15 minutes before serving, so it is easier to scoop.
If you love strawberries as much as I do, you’ll want to give the below recipes a try as well.
Yes, frozen strawberries work well in this recipe. Let them thaw slightly before blending to make it easier to achieve a smooth mixture.
Absolutely. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze. Stir the mixture every 30 to 60 minutes for the first few hours to help break up ice crystals and create a smoother texture. (see more information above as well)
Homemade ice cream can become icy if it contains too little fat or sugar. The crème fraîche and sugar in this recipe help create a smoother texture, so try not to reduce them too much.
Yes. Greek yogurt will make the ice cream thicker and creamier while adding a slightly tangier flavor.
The mixture should taste slightly sweeter than you would like the finished ice cream to be. Freezing dulls sweetness, so a sweeter base will result in better flavor after freezing.
Definitely. Raspberries, blueberries, peaches, or mangoes all pair well with yogurt and can be used in place of some or all of the strawberries.
