Strawberry Banana Yoghurt Clusters (Printable Version)

Frozen Greek yogurt clusters packed with strawberries, banana chips, and honey for a refreshing fruity treat.

# What You Need:

→ Yogurt Base

01 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, full-fat
02 - ½ cup strawberry-flavored yogurt
03 - 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
04 - ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
05 - Small pinch salt

→ Fruit Mix-ins

06 - ¾ cup freeze-dried strawberries, roughly crushed
07 - ¾ cup freeze-dried banana chips, coarsely chopped

→ Topping

08 - 2 tablespoons freeze-dried strawberries, reserved
09 - 2 tablespoons freeze-dried banana chips, reserved

# How To Make:

01 - Line a baking sheet or tray with parchment paper.
02 - In a medium mixing bowl, combine plain Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until smooth.
03 - Divide the yogurt mixture equally between two bowls.
04 - To one bowl, add strawberry-flavored yogurt. Gently fold to create a marbled swirl without fully blending for a streaked effect.
05 - Into each bowl, fold in half of the freeze-dried strawberries and banana chips, reserving 2 tablespoons of each fruit for topping. Stir gently to keep fruit pieces intact.
06 - Using two spoons, drop heaped spoonfuls of strawberry-swirl yogurt mixture onto one side of the prepared tray, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Repeat with the plain yogurt mixture on the other side.
07 - Sprinkle reserved freeze-dried strawberries and banana chips on top of each cluster, pressing gently so they adhere.
08 - Freeze the tray for at least 2 hours or until clusters are firm.
09 - Once frozen solid, transfer clusters to an airtight container or resealable bag with parchment between layers to prevent sticking. Store in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
10 - Let clusters sit at room temperature for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.

# Cooking Tips:

01 -
  • No blender, no ice cream maker, just a spoon and a few minutes of assembly before the freezer does all the work.
  • The freeze-dried fruit stays crisp even when frozen, giving you that satisfying crunch against creamy yogurt.
  • You can pull one out whenever you want a quick sweet fix without guilt or fuss.
02 -
  • Don't skip the parchment paper or you'll spend ten frustrating minutes trying to chisel frozen yogurt off your tray.
  • Let the clusters soften just a bit before biting in, otherwise they're rock-hard and you'll miss that creamy melt.
03 -
  • Drizzle melted dark chocolate over the clusters after freezing for an extra layer of indulgence that hardens into a crisp shell.
  • Add a pinch of cinnamon or cardamom to the yogurt base for a warm, spiced twist that pairs beautifully with the fruit.
