What Are Frozen Yogurt Bites?

Learn how to make homemade frozen yogurt bites below to see exactly what I’m talking about.
Simple Ingredients for Simple Strawberry Yogurt Bites
Vanilla Yogurt
I love, love, love using vanilla yogurt to make my frozen yogurt bites. There’s something really soothing and joy-making about a really good, really creamy vanilla yogurt. The sweet vanilla pairs so well with slightly tart, fresh strawberries for a flavor combo to truly delight. I also love it in this blueberry yogurt parfait for more tart/sweet deliciousness.
Fresh Strawberries
Speaking of fresh strawberries… I highly recommend using fresh to make your strawberry yogurt bites. They’ll be much easier to mash when making the easy homemade strawberry yogurt portion of this recipe, and they’ll be much easier to slice for the topping, compared to frozen strawberries.
Homemade Granola
… or any kind of granola you’d like. Sometimes, when I’m in a pinch, I’ll reach for a store-bought granola in my pantry, but mostly I like to use homemade granola. A few of my favorites include: vanilla almond granola, low calorie granola, gluten free granola, and for super big clusters, healthy chunky granola.
How to Make Homemade Frozen Yogurt Bites with Sweet Strawberries
First, line a muffin pan with muffin liner cups. Then, sprinkle a few teaspoons of granola into the bottom of each cup.
Add yogurt and strawberries to a medium bowl. Make sure to chop the fresh strawberries beforehand for the just-right texture in your strawberry yogurt bites!
Mash the strawberries into the yogurt until well mixed. You’ve just made a super easy homemade strawberry yogurt!
Now, spoon this strawberry yogurt mixture over the granola. I like to use this medium scoop to speed up measuring out about 2 tablespoons per cup.
Then grab a spoon to smooth this layer. Sometimes, I’ll just give the pan a few taps on the counter to quickly and easily smooth out the yogurt. 😉
Press a fresh strawberry slice gently into the top of the yogurt, then top with a sprinkle of granola (or skip it, if you’re feeling like I did this day).
Lastly, chill strawberry yogurt bites in the freezer until firm. Now, pop out each bite and enjoy! You might also like my 3 ingredient Frozen Yogurt Bars.
