Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups Unsweetened Dairy-Free Yogurt (Substitute with Greek yogurt for non-vegan options)
- 3 cups Fresh Peaches (Can use store-bought frozen peaches if fresh aren’t available)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract (Adds depth and warmth)
- 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice (Brightens the peach flavor)
Optional Garnish
- 4 pieces Waffle Cones or Bowls
- Fresh fruit or mint leaves (optional for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare Peaches: Wash, peel, and chop fresh peaches into small bite-sized pieces making them easier to blend and freeze.
- Fill Ice Cube Trays: Portion the chopped peaches into ice cube trays, filling them halfway to allow space for the yogurt.
- Add Yogurt: Pour unsweetened dairy-free yogurt over the peaches in the trays until fully filled, then freeze for about 6 hours until solid.
- Soften Frozen Cubes: Remove the frozen yogurt cubes from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to soften slightly for easier blending.
- Blend Frozen Yogurt: Place the softened frozen yogurt cubes into a blender and pulse until crumbly, then add extra peaches and vanilla extract and lemon juice, blending until smooth and creamy.
- Serve: Scoop the peach frozen yogurt into waffle cones or bowls. Garnish with fresh fruit or mint leaves if desired, and serve immediately for a refreshing treat.
Notes
- You can substitute the dairy-free yogurt with Greek yogurt if not strictly vegan.
- Frozen peaches can be used if fresh ones aren’t available or during off-season.
- Adjust sweetness by adding a natural sweetener like honey or agave syrup if preferred, although the peaches provide natural sweetness.
- Letting the frozen cubes soften slightly before blending ensures a smoother texture and easier blending.
- Serve immediately after blending to enjoy the creamy texture before it melts.
