My friends,
Do you love ice cream as much as I do? That is, with all the strength of his soul, with all the enthusiasm, with all the frenzy that ardent youth is capable of?!
If yes, then my today's monologue about yogurt ice cream is for you.
Monologue about ice cream
You probably remember - I have already written 100 times how much I love ice cream and how it reciprocates, because it always turns out incomparable. Yes, and this despite the fact that I always cook it without an ice cream maker. Imagine what will happen if I buy it! It's scary to imagine.
Do you remember how in the American TV series, every time the heroine breaks up with her beloved Pinocchio, she takes out a huge bucket of fatty chocolate-vanilla ice cream from the refrigerator and eats it with a huge tablespoon, wiping her tears and drool. A good marketing ploy, I do not argue. Now imagine if we, weak defenseless creatures, every time we have misunderstandings with suitors, stress at work, problems with a girlfriend, every time we crush a bucket of such ice cream, what we will turn into.
For such cases, I came to your aid and brought easy recipes for yogurt ice cream, which you can shamelessly crush with buckets and not blush later in front of the mirror.
Well? So, let's say, I quarreled with my husband, screwed up apricot yogurt ice cream and walk happy and slim))) It really works, I answer.
By the way, I think that yogurt ice cream as a dessert is much tastier than creamy fat ice cream. Personally, after a full dinner, it’s much more pleasant for me to refresh myself with a light, non-calorie, slightly sour dessert with fresh berries, for example. By the way, the Greeks say that yogurt improves digestion and very often they serve it with fruit or jam as a compliment from the chef after dinner in their taverns. Yes, and nutritionists also recommend eating natural yogurt including in the evenings. So everything is fine.
In Greece, in general, now the epidemic began with this frozen yogurt. There were so many miniature shops with him that everyone had already lost count.
Brief historical background
Did you know that the first yogurt ice cream was launched in 1970 by the American company H.P. Hood somewhere in New England in the USA. But Americans didn't really like the sour taste of yogurt in ice cream, and the classic creamy sweet ice cream is back. When healthy eating and dieting on an extraordinary scale came into vogue in the mid-2000s, low-calorie frozen yogurt became incredibly popular not only in America but throughout the world.
So, let's begin.
And, before proceeding, I will say that for ice cream it is best to use natural Greek yogurt, which is filtered from excess liquid.
If you can’t find Greek, then take ordinary natural yogurt WITHOUT ADDITIVES and separate the excess liquid by wrapping it in gauze or cloth and hanging it in the refrigerator overnight.
1. Classic yogurt ice cream - vanilla
This ice cream is best combined with fresh fruits and berries.
List of required products:
- sugar - 280 gr.

Cooking method:
- Beat cold yogurt with sugar and vanilla essence with a mixer until sugar is completely dissolved (grains should not be felt if you rub a little yogurt with your fingers).
- Transfer the yogurt to a deep plastic or metal bowl and place in the freezer for 45 minutes.
- After 45 minutes, check the ice cream: if it starts to freeze around the edges, break the ice crystals with a hand or submersible mixer. But you can get by with a regular fork.
- Return the ice cream to the freezer for another 30 minutes. If the ice cream has hardened, repeat the procedure. And so every half an hour for 2-3 hours (the more repetitions the better).
- We shift the ice cream into a rectangular container and cover with a lid or a sheet of parchment paper.
You can start freezing yogurt right away in the container, but it will be inconvenient to whip in it.
2. Healthy fruit-filled yogurt ice cream

In the summer heat, ice cream sales increase significantly, as people want to enjoy a sweet cold dessert. However, the quality and composition of the goods in the store often do not suit the buyer, who carefully monitors his health. A large amount of sugar and chemical additives indicated on the package do not add usefulness to the product. You can replace ice cream with a more healthy creamy treat - frozen yogurt.
Benefit
Fresh yogurt is very useful product for the intestines, as it contains many active bacteria. Unfortunately, most of them die when frozen, however, freezer yogurt has several advantages over conventional cold desserts.
The high content of calcium has positive influence on the body. The element is useful for the bone skeleton, the health of teeth, nails and hair. Moreover, latest research proved the importance of a regular intake of calcium in the fight against oncological diseases. It helps to reduce growth cancer cells in the region of the large intestine. One serving of frozen yogurt can contain 100 to 180 milligrams of calcium.
Chocolate and sweets are very tasty, but they do not nourish the body, but only give a large dose of sugar to the blood. Frozen yogurt, unlike classic ice cream, contains a large amount of protein. One serving contains about 25 g of protein, which are the main building material for the muscular corset of any person. It is especially useful for children and adolescents who are in the phase of active growth.
Yogurt, compared to ice cream, contains half the fat, which makes the former almost a dietary dessert. It can be used by those who are overweight, but do not find the strength to give up sweets. Use instead of a store product homemade yogurt, prepared with your own hands, will occasionally allow you to enjoy a cold snack even for people suffering from diabetes.
Calorie content and composition
The nutritional value frozen yogurt depends on which product was frozen. Undoubtedly, the number of calories in homemade natural yogurt will be lower than in a sweet store-bought dessert with various fillings, and the content of healthy protein will be higher. So, regular fruit yogurt is much healthier than the one in which puffed rice, biscuit pieces or chocolate chips are added.
It is best to freeze a natural product prepared by yourself or choose more low-fat products without fillers. After all, yogurt is rich not only in beneficial bacteria, but also contains vitamins and beneficial trace elements that do not disappear anywhere during the heat treatment of the product.
- Vitamins A and C increase immunity and body resistance to various diseases. And a number of B group vitamins help fight excess weight, brittle nails and hair, and stress. Fermented milk products containing B vitamins are especially useful for women during menopause.
- Saturated fatty acid useful for the stomach and intestines, and the monosaccharides and disaccharides contained in the natural product will serve as an excellent source of energy.
- A large number of various macro- and microelements contribute to the production of various hormones and increase the protective properties of the body. In the composition you can find phosphorus, magnesium, zinc, calcium and potassium, chlorine, iron and sulfur. The high iodine content in some types of yogurt will help keep your thyroid healthy.
simple recipes
In order to prepare a frozen dessert, you will first need to prepare the yogurt itself. It is best to use a special device for this, which is called a “yogurt maker”, but you can get by with a regular set of dishes. You only need two ingredients to make it.
- 2 liters of milk of any fat content. It is best to take natural rather than pasteurized milk.
- 150 g of any ready-made yogurt. It is impossible to obtain lactic acid bacteria directly in milk. For their "breeding" you will need a little finished product. For the first time, you can use the product purchased in the store, and for subsequent preparations, the remains of the product that was made by yourself.
The preparation itself is so simple that even a beginner can handle it. Milk is boiled and cooled to a temperature of 38-40 degrees to cleanse it of harmful bacteria. Rinse glass or plastic containers thoroughly and hold for several minutes over hot steam. Pour milk into it, add ready-made yogurt to it and leave it in a warm and humid place to ripen for 12 hours. In order to create the most comfortable conditions for bacteria, you can put an open pan or a jar of warm water next to the milk and cover both containers with a blanket.
Frozen yogurt at home is no more difficult to prepare than regular yogurt. To do this, you need to decompose the finished fermented milk product into portioned containers and place it in the freezer for several hours. Every 20-30 minutes you can take them out and mix the contents thoroughly. This will break up the nascent ice crystals and make the mass more homogeneous and airy, similar to regular ice cream.
If it is possible to purchase an ice cream maker, then it is better to cook a delicacy in it, since the device itself mixes and whips the cooling mass. The finished product is delicious on its own, and if you add various fruits and spices to the recipe, you get real sweet ice cream.
Vanilla yogurt ice cream
For cooking, you need 800 g fermented milk product, 60 g of sugar, 60 ml of any syrup and 1 teaspoon of vanilla. Unsweetened yogurt should be allowed to drain slightly in a colander lined with cheesecloth to thicken the mixture. Mix the mass with all other ingredients and beat thoroughly with a mixer. Put the resulting dessert in the freezer until it hardens.
Yoghurt ice cream with fruits
To make ice cream, you need to take 500 g of a fermented milk product, 5 tablespoons of granulated sugar and 350 g of any filler. It can be strawberries, raspberries, cherries, bananas, pears or apples. And you can make a more exotic option by adding avocado, young carrot or Bell pepper. The main difference between different fillers is that some freeze well in sliced form, while others must be pre-processed. So, the mixture of berries and sugar must first be kneaded and boiled, and it is enough to cut the banana or avocado into small cubes and mix into the whipped yogurt mass.
Yogurt ice cream with nuts and chocolate
For cooking, you will need 600 g of a fermented milk product, crushed nuts, 1.5 tablespoons of cocoa or a dry mixture of hot chocolate. The yogurt mass is whipped with cocoa, after which crushed pistachios or hazelnuts are gently mixed into it. The resulting mixture is laid out in forms and sent to the freezer for 6-8 hours. If you insert wooden or plastic sticks into the soft mass, then after freezing you get a real popsicle that can be dipped in melted chocolate, sprinkled with grated chocolate and candied fruits, or rolled in coconut flakes.
The shelf life of frozen yogurt is much longer than usual. If the latter can be stored in the refrigerator for about 1-2 weeks, then solid ice cream can lie in the freezer for at least a month. However, thawing and re-freezing yogurt is not recommended. In this case, he will finally lose all his beneficial bacteria and become an ordinary sweet dessert. Yoghurt ice cream will perfectly replace boring cakes and pastries at a summer holiday.
It can be used by both adults and children. And for the smallest, natural yogurt ice cream without sweet additives is perfect.
For how to make frozen mango and strawberry yogurt, see the following video.
Frozen yogurt is a dream, not a dessert! Surprisingly tasty, healthy, natural, dietary, and at the same time so easy to prepare that even a child can handle it.
First known as a low-calorie substitute for ice cream, frozen yogurt has captivated not only healthy lifestyle advocates, but also millions of sweet teeth around the world. Creamy, tender, refreshing and incredibly tasty - how can you resist it?!
Prepare the ingredients according to the list.
The base of the dessert is, of course, yogurt. In principle, any high-quality yogurt with good composition, but the best choice- Greek yogurt, ideally -. Greek yogurt is not only more healthy and dietary in composition, but also has a deeper creamy taste and creamy texture, which is especially pleasant in the finished dessert.
Fruits / berries and sweeteners can be selected to your taste. My version: berries grated with sugar, honey and green tea. V summer time- puree from fresh berries and fruits.
To make frozen yogurt, measure out a serving of yogurt and add mashed berries, fruit, or other toppings to taste.
I add a few teaspoons of sugared raspberries and currants. I mix another part of the yogurt with honey and add a few drops of vanilla essence or powdered green tea (matcha).
Mix the ingredients, taste and adjust the amount to your taste. Honey, berries, green tea and any other flavoring additives should be added in such quantity that their taste is a little more saturated than you are used to - in this case, when chilled, it will taste just right.
Our dessert is almost ready, and it remains only to freeze it. At this stage, you can experiment endlessly.
For example, pour yogurt into a pastry bag or syringe, deposit on a baking sheet in the form of drops of arbitrary size - you will get very tasty yogurt sweets.
In this case, pre-place the baking sheet in the freezer for 15-20 minutes - the sweets will “grab” on the chilled baking sheet and will better keep the desired shape.
You can use ice cream molds.
Or pour the yogurt into one large airtight mold, freeze and serve in cups or waffle cones.
Pour into serving bowls and garnish with berries. I have silicone molds.
Once the mixture has set and cooled, the frozen yogurt is ready!
Dessert can be served immediately or stored in the freezer for up to 1 month, enjoying it according to your mood.
