Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Homemade Frozen Yogurt
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of plain yogurt, 1/3 cup of sweetener, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  2. Wash, peel, and chop fresh fruit or thaw frozen fruit slightly before blending. Add to the yogurt mixture and mix gently.
  3. Fold in optional mix-ins like 1/2 cup of chocolate chips, crushed nuts, or shredded coconut. Stir until incorporated.
  4. Cover the bowl tightly and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld.
  5. Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn for 20 to 30 minutes according to manufacturer’s instructions.
  6. If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow dish and freeze, stirring every 30 minutes for 2 to 3 hours.
  7. Once the yogurt reaches your desired consistency, serve in bowls or cones with toppings of your choice.
