Favorite Greek Frozen Yogurt

This easy Greek Frozen Yogurt is so fresh and so creamy. It has a bright flavor and subtle sweetness, and you can add any fruit you like.

I love frozen treats in all forms and while I have long made Strawberry Frozen Yogurt and homemade Frozen Yogurt, I am so glad to share this Greek Frozen Yogurt recipe with you now. It is so creamy, so easy to make, and just a favorite dessert or refreshing snack to share with the kids.

I love this dessert for kids since it doesn’t require any fancy equipment and you can vary the flavor as you like. It’s also a protein snack for kids, so it satisfies and helps us have lots of energy until the next meal.

Also, it just tastes so good!

Ingredients You Need

Here’s a look at what you need to make this Greek frozen yogurt so you know what to have on hand and ready to go.

• Greek yogurt: Using full-fat, whole milk plain Greek yogurt in this recipe ensures that it’s super creamy, rich, and satisfying. (You can use a lower fat or non-fat Greek yogurt, but it may not be quite as epic.)
• Maple syrup or honey: This frozen yogurt tastes best sweetened a little with maple syrup or honey (for kids over age 1). You can also use agave nectar if you prefer.
• Lemon juice: I like to add a little brightness and fresh flavor to this recipe by adding fresh lemon juice.
• Vanilla extract: A little vanilla helps round out the flavors and make the Greek frozen yogurt really taste like dessert.

Ingredient Substitutions

To make this recipe dairy-free, use a non-dairy Greek style frozen yogurt in place of the dairy yogurt. It should work similarly, though it may be harder to find a plain unsweetened version.

You can skip all of the ingredients other than the yogurt and start with vanilla Greek yogurt or a fruit flavor.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Here’s a preview of how to make this Greek Frozen Yogurt so you know what to expect from the process. Scroll down to the end of this post for the full information, including the amounts and the timing.

How to Store

Freeze in individual portions of Greek frozen yogurt for up to 3 months in a freezer container in the freezer. Smaller portions will soften faster at room temperature, so this can be helpful.

The dessert for kids recipe does freeze firm, so plan to let it sit at room temperature for a bit before serving to allow it time to soften.

Best Tips for Success

• Freeze for 3-4 hours and stir vigorously to serve soft Greek frozen yogurt. Or freeze overnight and let sit at room temperature for a bit before serving so it’s very creamy (and not frozen solid).
• Try adding 1 cup minced strawberries, raspberries, mango, blueberries, or peaches to make a fruit flavor of this frozen Greek yogurt. Or stir in Strawberry Sauce, Blueberry Sauce, or Peach Sauce.
• Churn this in an ice cream machine and serve immediately for a soft fro yo texture.
• Try drizzling with peanut butter or dark chocolate chips for extra yum.
• To make this with regular yogurt, simply place a little more than the recipe calls for into a paper towel-lined fine-mesh sieve placed over a bowl. Let it drain for at least an hour (or longer) to let out some of the liquid and thicken the yogurt.
• Dairy-free: Try coconut cream (from a can) or nondairy Greek style yogurt like the kind from Siggis.
