How to Portion and Freeze This Recipe to Fit Your Lifestyle
This frozen yogurt is perfect for making ahead and customizing to your needs!
Making it easy for serving: Scoop into individual portions (I like to pre-scoop into round balls!) and freeze in a container so you can grab just the right amount you need quickly.
Freezing the whole batch: After blending, transfer to a shallow container and freeze until desired consistency. Keep frozen for up to 1 month.
Serving tip: For soft-serve texture, freeze about 30 minutes. For scoopable consistency, freeze for 1–2 hours. Longer freezing will result in a very hard texture, but you can thaw slightly before serving—or pre-scoop like I do!

Grandma Rita’s Kitchen Tips
The longer this frozen yogurt freezes, the harder it is to scoop out! Some people say they remove it from the freezer an hour before serving so it softens up to scoop it. I decided to scoop mine and freeze it and store in the freezer in scoop sized servings in a Tupperware container. Then we can just grab one out easily whenever we want some!
Ways to use this frozen yogurt recipe
While this frozen yogurt is perfect on its own, here are some ideas for pairing:
- A small slice of angel food cake
- Fresh berries on top
- A sprinkle of granola for crunch
- A drizzle of dark chocolate sauce
Other Sweet Treats you Might want to Try:
- Avacado chocolate pudding is another guilt free snack that tastes AMAZING!
- Almond butter chocolate cups are a keto friendly snack that tastes decadent.

Ingredients
- 4 cups frozen fruit
- 1 cup full fat greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 Tablespoons pure maple syrup
Instructions

Notes
For easy serving, I scooped out individual round scoops when it was at the ideal scooping time, and placed them in a large tupperware container with a lid - where I keep it stored in the freezer until I'm ready to use it. It makes it simple to get out servings when we want to use it!
