Description

These Blueberry Swirl Yogurt Bites are a creamy, tangy, and naturally sweet frozen treat made with Greek yogurt, a quick homemade blueberry compote, and a hint of honey. They’re perfect as a healthy snack or dessert, and come together with just a few simple ingredients. Ideal for kids and adults alike, these bites are deliciously refreshing and super easy to make.

Ingredients

For the Blueberry Compote

  • 1/2 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)

For the Yogurt Base

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat for creaminess)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Extra honey or maple syrup (optional, to adjust sweetness)

Instructions

  1. Make the Blueberry Compote: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the blueberries, honey (or maple syrup), and lemon juice. Simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the berries soften and begin to release juices. If a thicker compote is desired, mix cornstarch with a tablespoon of water to make a slurry, then stir it into the berry mixture and cook for another minute until thickened. Let the compote cool completely before using.
  2. Prepare the Yogurt Base: In a medium bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract until creamy and smooth. Taste and, if desired, mix in extra honey or maple syrup for added sweetness.
  3. Assemble the Bites: Spoon the yogurt mixture into silicone molds or a mini muffin tin, filling each cavity about three-quarters full. Tap the pan gently to level the surface.
  4. Add the Blueberry Swirl: Drop a small spoonful of the cooled blueberry compote onto the center of each yogurt-filled mold. Using a toothpick, gently swirl the berry compote into the yogurt to create a marbled effect.
  5. Freeze: Place the filled molds in the freezer and freeze for at least 3 hours, or until the yogurt bites are fully set and frozen solid.
  6. Serve: Once frozen, remove the bites from the molds. Store them in an airtight container in the freezer. For the best texture, allow the bites to sit at room temperature for 2–3 minutes before enjoying.

Notes

  • You can use either fresh or frozen blueberries for the compote.
  • Feel free to substitute maple syrup for honey if you prefer.
  • Letting the blueberry compote cool is important to keep the yogurt from melting or separating.
  • For a dairy-free and vegan version, use your favorite plant-based yogurt and maple syrup.
  • Silicone molds make popping out the bites easiest, but mini muffin tins with liners work well too.
