Recipe and Instructions
Step 1: Add the Ingredients
Add 2 cups frozen strawberries and 1 cup plain Greek yogurt to a blender or food processor.
Step 2: Blend Until Creamy
Blend until the mixture is smooth and thick. Stop and scrape the sides with a spatula as needed. The frozen strawberries should turn into a creamy pink frozen yogurt.

Scoop the frozen yogurt into a round bowl and serve right away for soft-serve texture. For a firmer scoop, place it in a freezer-safe container and freeze for 1 to 2 hours.
Pro Tips
Use frozen fruit, not fresh fruit. Frozen fruit gives the yogurt a thick, scoopable texture.
Use full-fat or 2% Greek yogurt for the creamiest result.
Pause the blender and scrape the sides. This helps everything blend without adding liquid.
Taste before freezing. If your fruit is very tart, you may want a sweeter fruit next time, like mango or banana.
Let firm frozen yogurt sit out for 5 to 10 minutes before scooping.
Why This Recipe Works Quick Science
Frozen strawberries act like tiny ice cubes and fruit at the same time. When blended, they chill the yogurt and make it thick fast.
Greek yogurt adds protein and creaminess. Its thick texture helps the frozen yogurt stay smooth instead of watery.
Because there is no added sugar, it freezes harder than store-bought frozen yogurt. That is why it is best eaten right away or after a short freeze.

Common Mistakes
Using fresh strawberries instead of frozen ones. The mix will turn thin instead of creamy.
Adding too much liquid. This can make it more like a smoothie.
Freezing it too long without thawing. It can get very hard.
Not scraping the blender. Thick frozen yogurt needs a little help blending evenly.
Substitutions and Variations
Use frozen mango for a tropical flavor.
Use frozen blueberries for a deep purple frozen yogurt.
Use vanilla Greek yogurt for a sweeter taste.
Use dairy-free coconut yogurt if needed.
Add a spoonful of honey or maple syrup if you want it sweeter, but then it will no longer be 2 ingredients.
Make Ahead Tips
You can make it ahead and freeze it in a covered container. For the best texture, eat it within 1 week. Let it sit at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes before scooping.
What to Serve With
Fresh berries
Granola

Leftovers and Storage
Store leftovers in a freezer-safe container with a lid.

FAQ
Can I use regular yogurt?
Yes, but Greek yogurt makes it thicker and creamier.
Can I use frozen mixed berries?
Yes. The flavor will be a little more tart, but it works well.
Do I need an ice cream maker?
No. A blender or food processor is enough.
Can I make it sweeter?
Yes. Add honey, maple syrup, or a very ripe frozen banana.
Why is it hard after freezing overnight?
Homemade frozen yogurt has less sugar and no stabilizers, so it freezes harder. Let it thaw for a few minutes before scooping.
