How to make strawberry frozen yogurt
(Note: this is a quick explanation; the full recipe is at the bottom of the page)
To make this strawberry frozen yogurt, simply blend frozen strawberries, yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and a touch of vanilla (optional). You can use a blender or a food processor following a few simple steps:
- Blender: Add all the ingredients to the Vitamix blender, gradually increasing the speed, then blend on high for approximately 40 seconds. Use the tamper to push the frozen fruit into the blades as needed. I used this Vitamix, absolutely one of my favorite kitchen tools!
- Food processor: Place all the ingredients in the bowl and process until creamy, about 2 minutes. I tested the recipe in my Magimix, and it worked so well, quick and powerful.
- Transfer to a freezer-safe container until hardened for a perfect scoop, or enjoy it immediately while it’s still soft and creamy.
Recipe notes
Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Ingredients
Strawberries: Feel free to use fresh or store-bought frozen strawberries here, but keep in mind that fresh strawberries must be frozen solid. However, you can also substitute the strawberries with any berries you prefer, such as blueberries, raspberries, or cherries. YUM.
Yogurt: Choose good quality plain yogurt, such as Greek, full-fat, or low-fat options. You can also use flavored yogurt, such as vanilla or lemon curd, which pairs well with strawberries. If you are using sweetened yogurt, you will need to adjust the maple syrup or omit it altogether. If you prefer a dairy-free alternative, you’re welcome to make it vegan by using soy or coconut yogurt. Easy peasy!
Vanilla: This is optional and can be substituted with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or a sprinkle of lemon zest. If you use vanilla yogurt, adding vanilla extract is not necessary.
Sweetener: You can use honey or maple syrup!
How to freeze fresh strawberries
- Cut off and discard the stems of your strawberries.
- Rinse the strawberries under cold running water, drain, and pat dry with a cloth or paper towels.
- Cut the large strawberries in half. This makes the blending easier.
- Place your strawberries on a parchment-lined tray and freeze until they are frozen solid. This will prevent them from sticking together when stored.
- When the strawberries are frozen solid, place them in a freezer-safe bag and remove as much air as possible to prevent freezer burn.
- Store the frozen strawberries in your freezer until you’re ready to use them.
Note: Be careful not to over-blend the mixture, as it will become soft and runny. If it turns too soft, transfer it into a container and freeze until it’s firm and has a scoopable consistency.

Strawberry Frozen Yogurt
Ingredients
- 2 cups (10oz/300 grams) frozen strawberries
- ½ cup (4oz/120 grams) Greek yogurt (low or full-fat works too)
- 1 ½ Tbsp (30 grams) honey ( or maple syrup)
- ¼ tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- Add yogurt, honey, vanilla extract and strawberries to a bowl of a food processor or to your Vitamix blender.
- VITAMIX: increase the speed gradually and make sure you use the tamper to push the frozen fruit into the blades. The mixture should be ready in about 40 seconds. Stop after 40 secs and check if it's ready, otherwise go ahead for other 10 seconds or until creamy but still firm.
- FOOD PROCESSOR: process for about 2 minutes or until creamy. The time might depend on the strawberry sizes: large strawberries might take longer. See notes.
- Enjoy! Serve the frozen strawberry yogurt immediately or transfer it to an airtight container and freeze until firm and with a scoopable consistency.
I dont have a food processor, can I use blender instead?
Hi Cheng. A high-speed blender works perfectly fine if you use the temper. I tested this recipe in a Vitamix which is very powerful (notes in the recipe). But I’ve never tested the recipe with other blenders. x
My grandkids favorite! Because the level seemed a little low for the Vitamix, I doubled the starwberries and yogurt to make a larger batch. I made four large popsicles, 3 yogurt tubes and 2 nice bowls of “breakfast ice cream”
That’s great, Catt! I’m so pleased your grandkids love this recipe.
Thanks for sharing your feedback. x
