Peach Frozen Yogurt
Description
The Peach Frozen Yogurt consists of frozen peaches processed with plain low-fat yogurt, a sweetener such as honey or agave nectar, and fresh lemon juice to add brightness. Using a food processor, the ingredients blend into a smooth, thick consistency. Serving immediately yields a soft textured frozen yogurt, suitable for quick enjoyment, while an extra 20-30 minutes in the freezer firms up the texture closer to traditional frozen yogurt.
This recipe highlights the natural peach flavor complemented by the slight acidity from lemon juice and the creaminess of yogurt. The sweetness can be adjusted by choice of honey or agave. The dessert is a refreshing option for warmer days and can accommodate other fruits like strawberries or blueberries as tested, although peach remains favored for its creaminess.
The recipe easily doubles with a larger food processor. Using a high-powered blender might also work for similar results. The frozen yogurt can be stored in the freezer covered for up to a month.
Ingredients
- 4 cups peaches frozen
- ¼ cup honey or agave nectar
- ½ cup PLAIN yogurt lowfat
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice fresh
Instructions
- In the bowl of a 7- or 8 cup food processor, add the peaches, agave nectar or honey, yogurt and lemon juice.
- Process until the frozen yogurt is smooth and thick, about 5-6 minutes.
- Serve immediately if you don't mind really soft frozen yogurt, otherwise, scrape the mixture into a tupperware-type container and freeze for 20 minutes (or up to a month if well-covered).
Notes
- This recipe can be doubled easily but requires a large food processor or blender for best results.
- Serving immediately results in a soft texture; freeze for 20-30 minutes to firm up.
- Other fruits like strawberries, blueberries, or mangoes can be substituted, with peach often yielding a creamier texture.
- Try a high-powered blender if a food processor is not available; it may produce similarly smooth frozen yogurt.
