Ingredients
Ingredient Amount Notes
Plain Greek yogurt ½ cup Full-fat, low-fat, or nonfat
Fresh blueberries ½ cup Washed and dried
Honey 1 tablespoon Adjust to taste
Optional additions
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon juice for extra brightness
A tiny pinch of salt
Extra blueberries for topping
The recipe shown in your image contains only Greek yogurt, fresh blueberries, and honey.
Full Method
1. Prepare the blueberries
Wash the blueberries and dry them well. Excess water can make the frozen bites icier.
2. Make the blueberry mixture
Add the blueberries to a small bowl.
For a smooth purple color, mash or blend the blueberries.
For the marbled appearance shown in the picture, lightly crush only some of the berries, leaving some pieces intact.
3. Sweeten the yogurt
Place ½ cup Greek yogurt in a bowl and stir in 1 tablespoon honey.
Add vanilla if desired.
4. Create the blueberry swirl
Add some of the crushed blueberry mixture to the yogurt and gently fold it in.
Don’t completely mix it. A few gentle turns create the attractive purple-and-white marble effect.
5. Fill the mold
Spoon the mixture into a small silicone sphere or candy mold.
For extra blueberry flavor, you can place a few whole blueberries into the mixture before freezing.
6. Freeze
Place the mold flat in the freezer for 3–4 hours, or until the bites are completely firm.
For the easiest release, freezing overnight also works.
7. Serve
Remove the bites from the silicone mold.
Let them sit at room temperature for 2–5 minutes before eating if you prefer a slightly softer, creamier texture.

+1 Recipe Q&A
Can I use frozen blueberries?
Yes. Thaw them first and drain excess liquid. Fresh blueberries give the best texture, but frozen berries work well.
Can I use regular yogurt instead of Greek yogurt?
Yes. Regular yogurt will make the bites softer and less protein-rich.
Can I use flavored Greek yogurt?
Yes, but reduce or omit the honey because flavored yogurt is already sweetened.
Can I make these without honey?
Absolutely. Use maple syrup, date syrup, or another sweetener, or simply omit it if you prefer a tarter bite.
Can babies eat these?
Honey should not be given to children under 12 months because of the risk of infant botulism. For babies under one year, omit the honey and use an age-appropriate preparation recommended by their pediatrician.
Why are my bites icy?
Common causes are excess water from the blueberries or yogurt with a high water content. Dry fresh berries thoroughly and use thick Greek yogurt.
Why are they too hard?
Frozen yogurt becomes quite firm. Allow the bites to sit for a few minutes before eating. Using full-fat Greek yogurt can also produce a creamier texture.
How do I get the pretty purple swirls?
Don’t completely mix the blueberries into the yogurt. Mash the berries separately and gently fold them through the honey-sweetened yogurt with only a few strokes.
Can I blend everything together?
Yes. Blending produces a smoother, uniformly purple frozen yogurt bite rather than the marbled appearance.
Can I add protein powder?
Yes. Start with 1 tablespoon of unflavored or vanilla protein powder. You may need a splash of milk to loosen the mixture.
Can I add chia seeds?
Yes. Add 1–2 teaspoons and let the mixture sit for about 5–10 minutes before filling the mold.
Can I add lemon?
Yes. About ½–1 teaspoon lemon juice gives the blueberries a brighter flavor.
How long do they keep?
For best quality, keep them in an airtight freezer container or freezer bag and use within 2–4 weeks. They remain frozen longer than that, but texture and flavor can gradually deteriorate.
Can I make them without a sphere mold?
Yes. Use an ice-cube tray, mini muffin pan lined with silicone cups, or simply spread the mixture in a small freezer-safe container and cut/break it into pieces once frozen.
Are these a good make-ahead snack?
Yes. They can be prepared in advance and stored frozen, making them convenient for a quick snack or light dessert.
