LAVENDER AND HONEY YOGHURT

This Lavender & Honey Yogurt recipe is a delightful blend of creamy Greek yoghurt, floral notes from dried lavender buds, and a hint of natural sweetness from honey. While this ingredient lends only a hint of delicate fragrance to lavender, an ordinary yoghurt can really be easily transformed into a fragrant, soothing dish perfect for breakfast, light snacks, or even a healthy dessert, all the while requiring only a short few minutes to prepare. Greek yoghurt, rich and poised, goes well with the faint fragrance of flowers to offer a delightful treat at any time. One should break time with this fragrant and healthy yoghurt in the evening.

PREPARATION OF LAVENDER AND HONEY YOGHURT

  • Infuse lavender: Mix the dried buds with the Greek yoghurt in a small bowl. Stir well so that it infuses all floral fragrances into the yoghurt and let sit for 5 minutes so that the lavender can extract all flavour.
  • Add honey: Mix the dried buds with the Greek yoghurt in a small bowl. Stir well so that it infuses all floral fragrances into the yoghurt and let sit for 5 minutes so that the lavender can extract all flavour.
  • Serve: Serve this lavender and honey yoghurt scooping it into a serving bowl, then enjoy. A few additional lavender buds or drizzles of honey may be used for presentation purposes.

PREP TIME

5 minutes

COOKING TIME

No cooking required

TIPS

  • For a more potent lavender flavour, let the yoghurt sit after adding the lavender buds for an extra 5-10 minutes.
  • Too much lavender should not overpower the dish with its flavour. It should be used sparingly and only to taste at first; it does take some getting used to.
  • Use local honey to flavour and boost your immune system.
  • If you like it smoother, you could then strain the buds from the lavender after the yoghurt infusion.

VARIATIONS

  • You can use maple syrup instead of honey for another form of sweetness.
  • Add crushed pistachios or almonds for the crunch and some texture.
  • You can fill them fresh with blueberries or strawberries for that little bit of added freshness and flavour.
  • For the vegan version, Greek yoghurt is exchanged with plant-based yoghurt and agave nectar is replaced with honey.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Fridge: Leftover Lavender & Honey Yogurt can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days in a sealed container. Stir well before resampling to redistribute the flavours.
  • Freezing: It freezes pretty thick, so the texture of the yoghurt will come out different, and it’s also too strong in lavender flavour.
