Ingredients
Instructions
1. Prepare the Strawberries
- Wash, hull, and dice strawberries into small bite-sized pieces. Pat dry with a paper towel to prevent excess water from freezing into ice crystals.
2. Mix the Yogurt Coating
- In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
3. Coat the Strawberries
- Dip each strawberry piece into the yogurt mixture until fully coated. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. For extra thickness, dip twice.
4. Freeze the Bites
- Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 2 hours, or until the bites are fully frozen.
5. Optional Chocolate Dip
- If desired, melt chocolate and dip frozen yogurt-coated strawberries halfway or fully. Return to freezer for 15 minutes to set.
6. Serve and Enjoy
- Remove from freezer just before serving. These bites are best eaten frozen as a refreshing snack.
Note
Allergy Warning: Contains dairy (yogurt) unless substituted with coconut or almond yogurt. Contains chocolate if used.
