TIPS
- Easy Release: Using silicone muffin cups ensures the bites pop out easily once frozen. If they stick, let them sit at room temperature for 1-2 minutes before removing them.
- Creamier Texture: Use full-fat Greek yoghurt for a richer, creamier consistency.
- Even Distribution: Stir the yoghurt before spooning it into the moulds to ensure consistent flavour throughout.
- Less Mess: Place the muffin cups on a baking tray before filling them to keep everything organised when transferring to the freezer.
- Make It Sweeter: If using plain Greek yoghurt, add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup for a touch of sweetness.
VARIATIONS
- Berry Medley: Swap blueberries for raspberries, strawberries, or blackberries for a variety of flavours.
- Chocolate Twist: Add ½ tsp of cacao nibs or mini chocolate chips for a hint of indulgence.
- Nutty Addition: Sprinkle ½ tbsp of chopped almonds or walnuts on top for extra crunch.
- Coconut Delight: Mix in ½ tbsp of shredded coconut for a tropical flavour.
- Dairy-Free Alternative: Use coconut or almond yoghurt for a plant-based version.
PREPPING AND STORAGE
- Freezing: Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks for the best flavour and texture.
- Meal Prep Tip: Make a large batch and store them in freezer bags for a ready-to-eat, healthy snack anytime.
- Re-Freezing: Avoid re-freezing melted yoghurt bites, as they may lose their smooth texture.
