Ingredient Breakdown

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp cornstarch (optional)

Let’s Get Cooking!

Now that we’ve gathered our ingredients, it’s time to dive into making these delightful yogurt bites.

  1. Simmer the blueberries: In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, honey (or maple syrup), and lemon juice over medium heat. Bring it to a simmer, it’ll be lovely and fragrant! Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries soften up and burst.

  2. Thicken (optional): If you’re using cornstarch, dissolve it in about 1 tablespoon of water and stir it into the blueberry mixture to thicken it. Let it simmer for an additional minute, then remove from heat and cool completely.

  3. Mix the yogurt: In a bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and creamy, ah, just look at that luscious texture! If you want to adjust the sweetness, taste it first before adding any more honey or syrup.

  4. Prep the molds: Grab your silicone molds or mini muffin tins. Spoon the yogurt mixture into them, filling about three-quarters full. You want to leave some space for that blueberry goodness!

  5. Create the swirl: Now for the fun part! Take a spoonful of the cooled blueberry compote and place it on top of each yogurt portion. Grab a toothpick and gently swirl it into the yogurt to create that beautiful marbled effect. Trust me, you’ll be super impressed by how pretty they look!

  6. Freeze: Pop your molds into the freezer for at least 3 hours (or until solid). You want them nice and firm, perfect for popping out and enjoying!

  7. Remove and store: Once they’re frozen, gently pull the yogurt bites out of the molds. Store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to two months. When you’re ready to enjoy, let them sit out for about 2-3 minutes for the best texture.
