How to make frozen strawberry yogurt
(Note: this is a quick explanation, the full recipe is at the bottom of the page)
- Vitamix: add all the ingredients to Vitamix blender, increase the speed gradually then blend on high for about 40 seconds, using the tamper to push the frozen fruit into the blades. 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.
Recipe notes
Frozen strawberry yogurt ingredients
- Strawberries: feel free to use fresh or store-bought frozen strawberries here, but keep in mind that fresh fruit must be frozen solid to make the recipe.
- Yogurt: Greek, full fat or low fat yogurt work fine in this recipe.
- Vanilla: it’s optional and can be substitute with 1 Tbsp of lemon juice if you wish.
- 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 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 to stick together when you store them.
- When the strawberries are frozen solid, place them in a freezer-safe bag and squeeze the air out to avoid freezer burn.
- Store the frozen strawberries in your freezer until you’re ready to use them.
Note: careful not to over-blend the mixture, it will get soft and runny. if it turns too soft, transfer into a container and freeze until firm and with a scoopable consistency.
And if you’re looking to cool off, why don’t you try also these refreshing pineapple sorbet or chocolate banana ice cream?

Frozen Strawberry Yogurt
Ingredients
- 2 cups (10oz/300 grams) frozen strawberries
- ½ cup (4oz/120 grams) yogurt (Greek, low of full fat)
- 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.
- 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
