Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I love how easy and quick this recipe is to throw together. It’s a fantastic way to reduce fruit waste, especially when blueberries are in season and I’ve overbought. It’s also an ideal make-ahead snack that’s both healthy and sweet, satisfying my dessert cravings without reaching for something overly processed. And if I’m involving kids, it becomes a fun and interactive kitchen activity they actually enjoy.

Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

Fresh blueberries
Greek yogurt
Toothpicks (for dipping)
Wax or parchment paper
Cookie sheet

Directions

I start by placing a cookie sheet in the freezer for at least an hour before making the bites. This helps the yogurt freeze quickly once I dip the blueberries.
I wash and thoroughly dry the blueberries.
Then I line the chilled cookie sheet with wax or parchment paper.
I spoon some Greek yogurt into a small bowl or cup for easy dipping.
Using a toothpick, I pierce each blueberry and dip it fully into the yogurt.
I place each dipped berry onto the lined baking sheet, keeping them spaced out so they don’t stick together.
Once I’ve dipped all the berries I want, I put the sheet in the freezer for 1 to 2 hours until the bites are fully frozen.
After freezing, I peel the bites off the paper and transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container to store.

Variations

I sometimes switch things up by using different types of yogurt. Vanilla, lemon, or strawberry-flavored Greek yogurt pairs beautifully with blueberries. For a dairy-free version, I go with a thick coconut yogurt. While blueberries are my favorite for this snack, I also like trying raspberries, halved strawberries, or even cherries. I avoid fruits with high water content like watermelon or cantaloupe, as they don’t freeze as well.

storage/reheating

Once the bites are frozen solid, I store them in a freezer-safe bag or container. I always keep them frozen until I’m ready to eat, since the yogurt melts quickly and can get messy if left out. There’s no need to reheat—these are meant to be enjoyed cold, straight from the freezer.

FAQs

How long do frozen yogurt blueberries last in the freezer?

I keep them for up to one month in an airtight container or freezer bag. They’re usually gone well before that, though!

Can I use regular yogurt instead of Greek yogurt?

Yes, but I make sure the yogurt is thick so it sticks to the blueberries. I also dry the berries completely before dipping.

Are these safe for toddlers?

They can be, but I always supervise young kids while they eat frozen treats. I sometimes cut the blueberries in half to reduce choking risk.

Can I make these without toothpicks?

Absolutely. I can use a fork, skewer, or even drop the berries into the yogurt with a spoon and fish them out.

Do I need to thaw these before eating?

No, I eat them straight from the freezer for the best texture and flavor. Thawing will make the yogurt soft and messy.

Conclusion

Frozen Yogurt Covered Blueberries are one of those snacks I keep coming back to. They’re healthy, refreshing, and ridiculously simple to make. Whether I’m whipping up a quick summer snack or getting kids involved in the kitchen, this recipe is a winner every time.
