Ingredients

• 1 tbsp honey
• 150g deep red raspberries
• 300g Greek yoghurt (10% fat)
• 2 drops of vanilla extract

Method

You’ll need: baking tray · chopping board · mixing bowl

1. Stir the Greek yoghurt with the honey and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth, creamy and even.
2. Lightly crush the raspberries with a fork so that a few small pieces remain.
3. Gently fold the raspberries into the yoghurt to create a marbled effect, so the colour only partly runs in.
4. Use a spoon to place small dollops of the yoghurt mixture on a tray or board lined with baking paper.
5. Freeze the berry yoghurt bites until firm and they come away easily from the paper.
6. Serve straight from the freezer and let them soften briefly so the centre stays slightly creamy.

Good to know

Cold, creamy, fruity – exactly the kind of snack that disappears fast. The mix is simple but the flavour is surprisingly well rounded.

Swaps

Honey → 1–2 tsp date paste (adds fibre and natural sweetness) Greek yoghurt → skyr (also provides protein) Greek yoghurt → natural yoghurt made from sheep's milk (often creamy, provides protein and calcium) Deep red raspberries → blueberries (milder, contain polyphenols and freeze well)

Allergens

Contains milk. Usually suitable for children if the texture works for them, and in pregnancy pasteurised yoghurt is the usual choice. Honey isn't suitable for babies under one year old.

Frequently asked questions

Which nutrients are in Greek yoghurt?

Greek yoghurt mainly provides protein and, depending on the type, calcium, phosphorus and vitamin B12. The fat content can vary a lot, and with it the amount of saturated fatty acids.

What do raspberries bring to this recipe nutritionally?

Raspberries contain fibre, vitamin C, manganese and various polyphenols. Here they also bring colour and a fresh, tart note.

Is vanilla extract relevant nutritionally?

Vanilla extract is usually used in very small amounts and contributes hardly any nutrients worth mentioning. Here it's mainly there for the flavour.

Is this recipe OK if you have a sensitive stomach?

That mainly depends on the dairy and the fibre: people with lactose sensitivity react differently to yoghurt, and raspberries, with their seeds and fibre, don't suit everyone equally. Small portions are often the most sensible approach.
