These raspberry lemon frozen yogurt bars are a quick, easy, and delicious summer treat with a perfect balance of tart raspberries and zesty lemon in a creamy yogurt base.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (480 ml) full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 1/2 cups (225 g) fresh raspberries
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8-inch (20×20 cm) baking dish with parchment paper, letting some overhang on the sides. (5 minutes)
  2. Pulse 1 1/2 cups (225 g) fresh raspberries in a blender or food processor until mostly smooth but still a bit chunky. (3 minutes)
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups (480 ml) Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup (60 ml) honey, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1/4 cup (60 ml) lemon juice, 1 tsp lemon zest, and a pinch of salt. Stir until smooth and creamy. (3 minutes)
  4. Gently fold the raspberry puree into the yogurt mixture to create a marbled effect. (2 minutes)
  5. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the surface evenly with a spatula. (2 minutes)
  6. Freeze the pan for at least 4 hours or overnight until solid. (4+ hours)
  7. Lift the block out using the parchment overhang and cut into 8 to 10 bars. Let bars sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes before serving. (5 minutes)

Notes

Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creaminess; low-fat yogurts freeze too hard. Don’t over-blend raspberries to keep some texture. Lemon zest is essential for flavor. If mixture is too runny, add powdered sugar to thicken. Warm knife in hot water and dry before slicing bars for clean cuts. Bars keep well up to 2 weeks in freezer. Let bars soften 2-3 minutes at room temperature before serving.
