How to Portion and Freeze This Recipe to Fit Your Lifestyle
This frozen yogurt is perfect for making ahead and customizing to your needs!
Making it easy for serving: Scoop into individual portions (I like to pre-scoop into round balls!) and freeze in a container so you can grab just the right amount you need quickly.
Freezing the whole batch: After blending, transfer to a shallow container and freeze until desired consistency. Keep frozen for up to 1 month.
Serving tip: For soft-serve texture, freeze about 30 minutes. For scoopable consistency, freeze for 1–2 hours. Longer freezing will result in a very hard texture, but you can thaw slightly before serving—or pre-scoop like I do!

Grandma Rita’s Kitchen Tips
The longer this frozen yogurt freezes, the harder it is to scoop out! Some people say they remove it from the freezer an hour before serving so it softens up to scoop it. I decided to scoop mine and freeze it and store in the freezer in scoop sized servings in a Tupperware container. Then we can just grab one out easily whenever we want some!
Ways to use this frozen yogurt recipe
While this frozen yogurt is perfect on its own, here are some ideas for pairing:

Homemade Frozen Yogurt (in Kitchenaide Food Processor)
Whip up a batch of wholesome frozen yogurt in your food processor in just minutes, using frozen fruit, Greek yogurt, vanilla, and maple syrup. It’s a perfect treat for a hot day or any time you want something sweet.
Ingredients
Method
- Freeze sliced fruit (I used a mix of bananas and strawberries) on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Whirl the frozen fruit in the food processor for a few minutes to break it up. Add all the other ingredients and mix until smooth.
- Spread the mixture into a loaf pan and freeze until it reaches a scoopable consistency. (I found 2 hours was perfect!)
Notes
When the yogurt reaches the ideal scooping stage, I scoop out individual rounds and place them in a large lidded container. I keep that container in the freezer until we need servings. It makes grabbing a portion quick and easy!
When it’s at the perfect scooping texture, I form individual scoops and store them in a big lidded container in the freezer until we’re ready for one. That makes it simple to pull out servings whenever we want!
