Somehow we find ourselves sliding into the second week of August. I don’t know about you all, but I am stuck somewhere between “holy cannoli, wasn’t it just Christmas” and “hallelujah, bikini season is almost over.” It has been a whirlwind summer, with three notable developments in the last week alone …
1. You may notice things look a little different around these parts. The site had a tiny facelift courtesy of the talented Lindsay Landis of Purr Design. There are new and improved navigation and search bars up top, as well as a rockin’ new recipe index page that allows you to search and sort recipes by both category and ingredient. And if you scroll down to the footer, you’ll find an evolving lineup of the most popular recipes on the site, as chosen by you!
2. My new weekly video series launched with a tutorial for easy homemade ricotta cheese. The series, which is published every Friday morning, features recipes and tips to help you save time and up your game in the kitchen. You can check out the new video page for a full list of video tutorials and feel free to subscribe to my YouTube channel.
3. Juan Pablo was announced as the star of the next season of The Bachelor.
Three nearly life-changing developments if you ask me. But the sweetness doesn’t stop there, because today I’m serving up a recipe for 5-Minute Healthy Peach Frozen Yogurt that’s made with just four ingredients and a food processor. And I’ve partnered with the generous team at KitchenAid to make sure this frosty dessert happens in your home kitchen. One lucky reader will receive the new KitchenAid Pro Line Series 16-Cup Food Processor, which has given my beloved stand mixer some serious competition in the Favorite Countertop Appliance department.

Ingredients
- 1 (16-oz.) bag frozen peaches or 4 cups fresh peaches, frozen solid
- 3 Tablespoons agave nectar or honey
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt (non-fat or whole)
- 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Add the frozen peaches, 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.

Recipe inspired by Eating Well.
I purchased a box of peaches from the Peach Truck for the first time this summer. I was tired of the usual peach salsa, peach crumble, etc. so I tried this easy frozen yogurt recipe and it was delish! Of course I had to add my own little spin to it by adding maple syrup instead of the honey or agave. I also added a bit of peach & raspberry liqueur which gave it a nice spirited kick. My guests will love it! Thank you.
YUM! I’m so thrilled you enjoyed the recipe, Leah!
I love your recipes and content, but the extreme amount of pop-ups and ads make the page unpleasant to use. 3 ads have popped up over the comment section while typing this…
Absolutely!
Where is the recipe? Or is this just another ad?
Hi Debbie! The recipe is underneath the last image of this post :)
Can you use a blender instead of a food processor???
Hi Elijah! A high-powered blender will work. :)
Had frozen blueberry yogurt tonight
Thanks Kelly for some fun summer treats.
You are so welcome, Pat! I’m thrilled you enjoyed the recipe!
Hit the spot! I had frozen peaches on hand, agave nectar, lemon and 0% Fat Greek Yogurt. Smooth, cold, and tasty in 5 minutes!
Woohoo! I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe!
Thank you! I needed inspiration what to cook for a work cooking challenge where two of the ingredients were a tin of peaches and strawberry yogurt! I used this as inspiration and it came out surprisingly well even with no lemon juice and sugar syrup instead of the honey as they weren’t in the permitted store cupboard list ;)
Awesome! I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe, Katy!
I love it! So delicious
I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe, Tess!
I made this recipe using frozen mangoes and also used maple syrup instead of the agave nectar or honey; I served it topped with fresh raspberries. Pure delight So simple and so easy to make.
I made a simple recipe (serves four); next time I’ll double or triple it!
Love the mango-raspberry combo, Yolande! I’m so thrilled you enjoyed the recipe!
LOVE this! I made a triple batch, and used the most perfect ripe peaches. I just cut them in half and took out the pits, then cut the halves into quarters to freeze. I only had about a tablespoon of lemon juice, so that is all I used. And we are maple syrup lovers, so I subbed in 6 TB of maple syrup for 9 TB of honey. The first batch, I put everything into the food processor, and had to keep opening it up to get the big chunks to go to the bottom to be processed. The second batch, I only put half the peaches in at first, with all of the yogurt and other ingredients, and then added peaches through the feeder in the top. That worked much better. I am going to try this all the time instead of buying ice cream or frozen yogurt! SO easy and the flavour is so fresh!
Woohoo! I’m so thrilled you enjoyed the recipe, Sandra!
I just tried it in the blender and had to do very small batches to keep it from seizing up. It is really delicious, though — worth the extra time to pulse & scrape.
Thanks for your comment, Jen! I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe!
Is it scoop able after you freeze it?
Hi Mindy! It’ll freeze solid so remove it for a bit prior to scooping and it’ll soften up. :)
Do they hav to be frozen or can you add ice?
Hi there! For the creamiest consistency, I’d recommend using frozen fruit.
If freezing fresh peaches, can they be with the skins, or do the skins need to be removed? I just split a 25 lb box of Georgia peaches with a friend, and in looking for ideas of things to make with them, came across this recipe/site and definitely want to try this!! Thanks in advance!
Hi Jamie! For the best texture, I’d recommend removing the skins prior to freezing.
Hi, does it absolutely have to be fresh lemon juice, or can I use store bought? Not a big deal to buy a lemon but in case I don’t have one on hand…
Thanks.
Nope! It doesn’t have to be, and you can even leave it our entirely :)
Ok maybe this is a silly question…but what’s the difference between a bag of frozen peaches only needing to be 16oz but fresh peaches, frozen solid needs to be 4 cups (32oz) ?
Not silly! The 4 cups only equals 32 oz. if it’s a liquid ingredient (ie. US fluid ounces).
I don’t have a food processor. Do you think I could make this with my blender? Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I thought I’d ask before I ruin my blender.
Not a dumb question at all. :) A blender works, but you’ll want to scrape down the sides as needed. Enjoy!
It was kind of a pain to get the frozen peaches to break up enough to make it. I had to keep taking large chunks out of the processor and chop with a knife BUT it was very good and I might try frozen strawberries next time.
I’m glad you enjoyed the frozen yogurt, Gail!
Hi, can I use fresh fruit or will this work only with frozen fruit? Can you add a drop of alcohol for flavour?
Hi Anna! Fresh fruit can be used in place of frozen, however, the fresh fruit must be frozen solid to reach the desired consistency. And yes, feel free to add in your alcohol of choice!
