Blueberry Greek Yogurt Bites
These Blueberry Greek Yogurt Bites are a healthy and satisfying snack that combines sweet blueberries with creamy Greek yogurt, perfect for breakfast or a refreshing treat.
Ingredients
For the yogurt bites
- 1.5 cups plain Greek yogurt Choose 2% or full-fat for extra creaminess.
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup Use erythritol for a keto-friendly version.
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract Adds flavor to the yogurt.
- ¾ cup fresh or frozen blueberries Both fresh and frozen work well.
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice Adds a bright pop of flavor.
- 1 teaspoon honey Optional, for extra sweetness.
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds Optional, for texture and fiber.
Instructions
Prepare the Blueberry Compote
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the blueberries, lemon juice, and optional honey. Cook for 5–6 minutes, stirring frequently, until softened and juice is released. Mash lightly to achieve a jam-like consistency.
- Once thickened, remove from heat and mix in chia seeds if using. Allow the compote to cool completely.
Make the Yogurt Base
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and honey until smooth and creamy. Adjust sweetness if needed.
Assemble the Bites
- Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the yogurt mixture into each cavity of a silicone mini muffin tray, filling roughly ¾ of the way.
- Add ½ teaspoon of the cooled blueberry compote on top of each yogurt portion. Gently swirl to create a marbled effect.
Freeze
- Place the tray flat in the freezer and allow the bites to set for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Serve & Store
- Carefully remove the bites from the molds and store in an airtight container in the freezer. Let thaw slightly before serving.
Notes
Using plain Greek yogurt contributes to the creamy texture. You can also experiment by incorporating different fruits into the compote or adding spices to the yogurt base.
