Equipment

  • 1 baking sheet
  • 1 baking sheet liner (or parchment paper)
  • 1 mixing bowl (small)
  • 1 piping bag and tip

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup full-fat yogurt (plain)
  • 1 tbsp raspberries
  • ⅛ - ¼ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Put all ingredients into the mixing bowl. Smash the raspberries with a fork and thoroughly mix everything together.
  • Scoop the mixture into the piping bag and line a baking sheet with a silicone liner or parchment paper.
  • Pipe out small circular shapes (ie. drops) of the yogurt mixture across the entire baking sheet.
  • Place baking sheet in the freezer and freeze for at least 5 hours, or overnight.

Notes

  • We recommend fresh raspberries as they'll be easier to mash and combine with the yogurt.
  • Choose how much vanilla to add based on your family's taste preferences. If you prefer a more subtle flavor, we recommend halving the amount of vanilla to 1/8 tsp.
  • If you don't have a piping bag and tip, place the mixture into a ziploc bag, squeeze the air out, and cut the tip off of one corner. Works just as well for this!
  • Don't worry about making the yogurt drops perfect or all the same shape, your kids won't care and they'll all freeze overnight even if some are a bit bigger. We recommend about the size of a nickel as a guide.
  • These melt fairly quickly so they're a treat best enjoyed at home to limit mess!
  • Substitution: Feel free to substitute cow's milk yogurt with your non-dairy yogurt of choice. We haven't tested them but it should work just as well!
