Strawberry Frozen Yogurt

Adapted from David Lebovitz - The Perfect Scoop

Ingredients

1 lb. strawberries, cleaned, hulled, and chopped

2/3 cup sugar

1 cup plain Yogurt, I used Greek yogurt

1-2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract

1-2 teaspoons Lemon Juice

Directions

Put strawberries and sugar in a bowl. Stir around and mash it up a little. Let sit and macerate for at least an hour.

Place macerated strawberries and remaining ingredients in a blender, puree until smooth. 

Freeze per your ice cream maker’s directions.

  

The Verdict

Amazing!!…why don’t we make homemade frozen yogurt or ice cream more often? We will be rectifying that mistake this summer!

I would try varying the yogurt – maybe a strawberry-honey, or vanilla yogurt flavor. Not that you need to, it is delicious as is – but it would be fun.

…and yes, 8 plus pounds of strawberries leads to lots of strawberry related recipes….only 4 more pounds to use!
