Description
A delicious blend of Greek yogurt and cherries for a creamy ice cream treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups Greek yogurt
- 2 cups cherries, pitted and chopped
- 3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Pit and chop the cherries. If using frozen, thaw slightly. Mash half for juiciness.
- In a blender, combine yogurt, sweetener, vanilla, lemon juice, and salt. Blend until smooth.
- Fold in the cherries—both chopped and mashed—for bursts of fruit in every bite.
- Churn in an ice cream maker until soft-serve texture forms. No machine? Freeze in a loaf pan, stirring every 30 minutes for 2-3 hours.
- Serve immediately or freeze longer for scoopable firmness.
Notes
- For a sweeter flavor, adjust the honey or maple syrup to taste.
- This ice cream can be stored in the freezer for up to two weeks.
