It’s Monday. Seems like a good time for an easy recipe, right? I mean, you didn’t want to spend your whole day in the kitchen, did you? Well if you do… I’ve got plenty of other ideas for you. But if you just want an easy, healthy snack that will cool you down during this crazy heat, stick around. These frozen yogurt bites will do the trick.
I know, I know, it almost seems silly to share a recipe that is so easy. But I personally love easy recipes. Easy recipes are the recipes I’ll make over and over and over again. And these frozen yogurt bites are probably going to be on repeat for awhile, at least until this heat wave calms down.
The shortcut to this recipe involved using pre-made granola. But obviously, if you’re feeling ambitious, you can make your own. Here are some of my favorite granola recipes:
Anyways, back to these frozen yogurt bites thing…
You’ll need about 1/2 cup of granola, so use whatever you like. I used what I had left of the Walnut Granola and then made another batch with Purely Elizabeth’s Ancient Grains Granola. So you do you. Follow your heart. Or maybe just your tastebuds.
- 1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt (I used 0% but 2% would be good too)
- 1 tbsp coconut oil (optional but it makes them a little softer)
- ½ cup wild frozen blueberries (Wild ones are smaller, so they work a little better!)
- ½ cup granola
- Line a muffin tin with paper or silicone liners (silicone works a little better but paper can work too)
- Drop 1½ tablespoons of Greek yogurt in the bottom
- Add 1 tablespoon wild blueberries
- Add another tablespoon of Greek yogurt on top.
- Sprinkle granola on top. Make sure it's a thin layer or press it into the Greek yogurt, so it'll stick.
- You should be able to fill about 8-10 muffin cups.
- Pop it in the freezer for 3 hours or until set.
- Store them in an air tight container and eat them straight from the freezer!
Now if we can just get this weather to cool off…
Or if you’re looking for another 3 ingredients frozen treat, try this honeydew sorbet!
Looks awesome! How long will they stay frozen?
I love freezing yogurt! I’ll have to try these. My favorite summer treat right now is frozen blueberries. They were perfect over the hot!!!! weekend.
I love easy recipes like this! And although it’s easy, creating these frozen bites is still creative so keep on sharing them!
You have the cutest cup molds!!!
Perfect after school snack for my girls before soccer and gymnastics! So easy they can even make them themselves.
These looks so FABULOUS!!! I would love for you to share the recipe at the Sunday Fitness & Food Link-Up at: http://www.marathonsandmotivation.com I have Pinned this and am looking forward to trying them, I think they will be a huge hit with my kids as well 🙂
This sounds delicious and like a great Summer treat!

i love the idea of yogurt bites..long time ago i made yogurt bark…i like these bites better!
I want to try making these for my toddler. He refuses to eat a decent breakfast.
THese are GENIUS! I actually like my yogurt frozen better than regular too! I’ll sometimes just stick it in the freezer to get it super cold too! Can’t wait to make these!
These look so amazing, I can’t wait to give them a try!
I need those silicone molds…but more importantly I need these bites! I’m thinking my toddlers would love them too! I like that you can use pre made granola when in a hurry or you can make your own, nice option!
This looks like the perfect summer treat!
Yay for fun summer weddings – even if they mean you’re in need of some extra zzzz’s 😉 xo
