FroYo Berry Bites

Every summer, the same thing happens. It starts out with excitement – warmer weather is finally here! It’s time to pack away those heavy, winter sweaters and hang out outside again. Then, as the months progress, reality sets in. Summer’s thick, humid air is just as oppressive as winter’s frigid temperatures. After a long day, I really need something light and refreshing to cool me down – and to remind me that I love this time of year! These FroYo berry bites do just the trick.

A frozen refreshment is sort of necessary on a hot day, helping you cool down while also recapturing your summer excitement. Unfortunately, store-bought ice cream is full of excess fat, cholesterol, and calories. And, I don’t know about you, but I tend to load-up on all those crunchy, sugary toppings at the local frozen yogurt spot. Luckily, these healthy FroYo berry bites are a breeze to make. They don’t have a lot of added sugar but they work to satisfy your sweet tooth while also cooling you down.

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup crushed almonds or almond meal
• 2 tablespoons coconut sugar, (more for a sweeter FroYo Bite)
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
• 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt, low-fat
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 1/2 cups fresh chopped strawberries and/or raspberries
• 6-cup muffin tin and liners

Directions

1. Line a 6-cup muffin tin with silicone or parchment cupcake liners, or add directly to nonstick muffin tin.
2. In a small bowl, stir together crushed almonds, coconut sugar, and coconut oil. Spoon a small amount into the bottom of each muffin cup.
3. In a medium bowl, mix together yogurt and honey. Spoon 2 tablespoons into each muffin cup, covering the crust.
4. Top with fresh chopped berries. Freeze until firm, about 6 hours. To serve, remove from silicone wrapper and allow to set at room temperature for 8-10 minutes. Enjoy!
