Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: -
Total Time: 10 mins
Cuisine: Greek
Serves: 24 bites
Ingredients
- 2 cups Greek yogurt
- 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line a mini muffin tin with silicone cupcake liners or lightly grease with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Whisk thoroughly until ingredients are well blended and smooth.
- Wash and carefully pat dry the mixed berries. Gently chop larger berries like strawberries into small, bite-sized pieces.
- Spoon a small amount of yogurt mixture into each muffin cup, filling approximately one-third of each cavity.
- Distribute the mixed berries evenly across the yogurt, gently pressing them slightly into the yogurt mixture.
- Top each cup with remaining yogurt mixture, ensuring berries are mostly covered.
- Place the muffin tin in the freezer and allow bites to freeze completely, which typically takes 2-3 hours.
- Once frozen, remove bites from the muffin tin and transfer to a freezer-safe container for storage.
- Let bites sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes before serving to soften slightly for easier eating.
Tips
- Choose Fresh Berries: Use ripe, in-season berries for the most intense flavor and natural sweetness.
- Prevent Sticking: Silicone cupcake liners work best, but if using a metal tin, generously spray with cooking spray.
- Customize Your Flavors: Experiment with different fruit combinations like mango and raspberry or peach and blueberry.
- Texture Matters: Chop larger berries into small pieces to ensure even distribution and easier eating.
- Freezing Hack: For quicker freezing, use a shallow baking sheet instead of a muffin tin for thin, bite-sized treats.
- Storage Tip: These bites can be stored in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 weeks, making them a perfect make-ahead snack.
- Serving Suggestion: Let the bites sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes before serving to achieve the perfect creamy-yet-frozen texture.
