Ingredients
- 4 cups frozen strawberries
- 3 Tablespoons agave nectar or honey
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt (non-fat or full fat)
- 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Add the frozen strawberries, agave nectar (or honey), yogurt and lemon juice to the bowl of a food processor. Process until creamy, about 5 minutes.
- Serve the frozen yogurt immediately or transfer it to an airtight container and store it in the freezer for up to 1 month.
Kelly's Notes:
- I prefer a more tart frozen yogurt, but you can add additional agave nectar or honey if you want a sweeter-tasting dessert.
- Fresh strawberries can be used in place of frozen, however the fresh strawberries must be frozen solid.

I went to print the recipe for 1 person and this is what I saw:
0.13 cup plain yogurt.
How much is this? Or am I supposed to use a scale?
Hi there! This recipe wouldn’t work very well if scaled down that small, as the minimal amount of ingredients won’t be enough to blend in a food processor.
delicious & healthier! We have always chopped up & frozen our over-ripe banana’s, they taste just like banana ice-cream…recently we’ve found many uses for cooking chocolate, just melt it in microwave for afew seconds & enjoy with yr frozen yoghurt recipe (my favourite is rasberry & strawberry so far…) with cereals, dried fruit & nuts too…You’ve opened a great new healthier chapter for us, thanx!!! Sarah & Ben
I’m so happy to read this, Sarah and Ben! :)
Absolutely Amazing ! When it is ready try it with maple syrup
I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe, Emile!
Can you use vanilla yogurt instead of plain yogurt and use less honey.
Absolutely!
My food processor does not have plastic paddles, just metal blade. Is this ok to use and 5 minutes on low or high?? Want to check before I go any further with the recipe.
Yes! I use the metal blade all the time on mine.
Can i make chocolate ice cream with Greek Yogurt?
I’ve never tried that so I’m not sure!
Yes you can
I have made 1/2 recipe twice; once with frozen strawberries and tonight with frozen strawberries and bananas. My husband and I loved it. We think we like the strawberry banana best. Next week we’ll try peach.
YUM! I’m thrilled you and your husband have been enjoying the recipe, Nancy!
Made this recipe for a friend that is in a soft food diet for a few weeks. It was so good, I made myself a batch too!!
I’m thrilled you enjoyed the recipe, Scooter!
Can I use fresh strawberries and ice instead? I don’t have time to freeze them!
Hi Elisha – I’ve never made this recipe with ice, so I can’t say with certainty how the texture will be affected but my guess is that it won’t be very creamy.
Fantastic.Saved me wasting money on an ice cream machine.
Thankyou
You are so welcome, Maureen! I’m thrilled you enjoyed the recipe!
I have greek yogurt that the Best before date is May 18 2021. Will this recipe still last the month when frozen?
Hi Lori – I wouldn’t recommend using yogurt that’s a month past the expiration date.
As I don’t like yogurt, THIS IS DELICIOUS FOR ME!!! I hate yogurt and this is great. I only had 2 cups frozen straw. and not 4. Definitely 5 stars.
I’m thrilled you enjoyed the recipe!
Does Greek yogurt work for this recipe?
Absolutely!
Following the exact ratios for the strawberry version, I make a mango frozen yogurt and swirl them together. Wonderful flavor and texture with intense and vibrant colors that are natural. Served it at a church picnic and once people tried it, they came back for seconds. I personally like this frozen yogurt over ice cream. I make this recipe multiple times over every summer since I first discovered it.
Love reading this, Kim! I’m thrilled you’ve been enjoying the recipe!
I wish you would have added nutrition so I could know the carb count
Hi Teresa! You can find the estimated nutritional info by clicking on the purple button below the recipe that says ESTIMATED NUTRITION INFORMATION. :)
At my school we are designing healthy lunch boxes and this is exactly what I need- healthy, easy and delicious!! Also do mixed frozen blackberries, raspberries and blueberries work??
Awesome! Yes, all of those berries will work, too!
Hi! I was wondering about using some herbs in the froyo, specifically mint, but there’s no ideas so far about the ratios, or when to add them. Do you have any ideas/suggestions about how to use them?
Definitely! You can add 2 or 3 mint leaves with everything else. Yum!
Hey there! I love the sound of this recipe. I love to make smoothies! I made this w/ oranges and mango yogurt and it was amazing! I also used a Vitamix instead of a food processor. We’re going camping in a couple of hours. This will be made on our trip
Woohoo! Enjoy!
SO YUMMY! I’m 11 and I have been trying out a ton of new recipes during quarantine. This one is SO GOOD!!! I halved the recipe because i just wanted a little treat and both me and my dad loved it! The big strawberry chunks take a bit of work to blend up but other than that, Fantastic!!!
Love reading this, Cora! I’m so thrilled you and your dad enjoyed the recipe!
So easy and yummy. I used agave because I had no liquid honey but I think I will try honey next time. Made it with frozen mango and can only imagine how good it will be on a hot summer day!
Awesome! I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe, Margo!
Fast , creamy, Loved it. Going to making it alot
I do have a question
how to keep it creamy after freezing it so it is not so hard to scoop out of container
Hi Jeri – The frozen yogurt will freeze solid but if you remove it for a bit prior to scooping, it’ll soften back up. :)
This is so easy, my toddler made it and she approved it. Delicious!!
I’m so thrilled to read this, Natasha!
