Jump to Recipe

How is it July and I haven’t busted out the ice cream maker yet?! My kids didn’t realize that you can just toss stuff in a machine and it makes ice cream. Showing them this easy Three Ingredient Strawberry Frozen Yogurt was like showing them a magic trick. A delicious strawberry magic trick.

This is the best time of year to make this and, in fact, I’m not sure I would bother making it unless you can find really great, ripe strawberries. Don’t use frozen or those weird half-ripe February strawberries.

But bright red, sweet strawberries make for a perfect frozen yogurt base and you only need two other ingredients. Both of which you might already have! Read on to learn my tricks to make this delicious summer dessert!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound fresh strawberries
  • 1 cup whole milk yogurt
  • ΒΌ cup honey

Instructions
 

  • Hull strawberries and add them to a blender. Blend on high for a minute or two until they are in a smooth puree.
  • Pour strawberry puree through a mesh strainer into a medium bowl. Use a flexible spatula to work the mixture through the strainer to get out all the seeds.
  • Add honey and whole milk yogurt to the strawberry puree.
  • Chill mixture either in the fridge for a few hours OR you can place the bowl in an ice bath and stir it to rapidly chill the mixture.
  • Pour strawberry yogurt mixture into your ice cream maker and churn for about 30 minutes until it’s nice and thick.
  • Serve frozen yogurt immediately for a soft-serve texture or press into a container and freeze for later. I think it’s easiest to scoop if you let the frozen yogurt thaw for a few minutes before serving.

Obviously you need strawberries for this. About a pound will do the trick. Find ripe ones!

Fresh Strawberries - Strawberry Frozen Yogurt
Basics.

I wanted a really smooth frozen yogurt so I wanted to puree all of my strawberries. You could stir some chopped strawberries into your mix if you wanted a little texture to your dessert. I like a smooth frozen yogurt though.

Hull the strawberries and blend them up! Look at that color!

Pureed Strawberries - Strawberry Frozen Yogurt
Puree them down.

Important Step Alert: Strawberries have somewhere between 1 million and 1 billion little tiny seeds. You don’t notice these while you are eating them whole, but in a smooth frozen yogurt they are annoying.

I recommend straining the strawberry puree to remove as many as possible. Yes, this is an annoying step, but otherwise this recipe is basic so do the little extra work to make it great!

Then mix your puree with honey and yogurt. Honestly, you could probably even leave the honey out but I like the little extra sweetness. You definitely don’t need to add any extra sugar on top of this though.

Tips for Making Frozen Yogurt

Here are my few basic tips for making good frozen yogurt.

  • Use Whole Milk Yogurt! I think it needs the fat to get to be really creamy and delicious.
  • Chill the Mixture. Get your base mixture as cold as possible before you start churning it. You can either store it in the fridge for a few hours or put the bowl in an ice bath for a few minutes which will chill it down really quickly.

Into the churner.
  • Get a Good Ice Cream Maker! For awhile I hobbled along with a sub-par ice cream maker and upgraded a few years ago. It really makes a difference. I like the Cuisinart model I linked to below the recipe.
Churn power - Strawberry Frozen Yogurt
Churn it up.
  • Eat the Yogurt Soft-Serve. I think frozen yogurt is best at a soft serve (or slightly harder) consistency. So, it’s great right out of the churner or if you do freeze it for longer storage, let it thaw for a few minutes before scooping it so it can soften up some.

That’s all there is to it! Easy Strawberry Frozen Yogurt is a great way to beat the heat while strawberries are so delicious right now!

  1. I love this recipe! So simple, so perfect, and so much healthier and tastier than the packaged store versions. Thanks for the step of removing the seeds, I wouldn’t have even thought of that. I tried it with two batches. The first was delicious. The second, I added juice from a single key lime to the strawberry puree and it brought out a great tangy pop (like a sherbet) and actually seemed to make the ice cream taste a little sweeter. In any case, great, easy recipe. Thanks!

  2. This looks delicious! Gonna have to get one of these Cuisinart ice cream makers. I had no idea that strawberries had THAT many seeds. Fascinating!

  3. This is so timely! My kids and I just visited a strawberry farm and did some picking. They sure are tasty and flavorful. Will definitely give this frozen yogurt recipe a try this week. Thank you for sharing!

  4. Im allergic to all kind of seeds and nuts. Thats why I get migraine when eating strawberries :-)
