What’s better than ice cream on a hot summer day? This homemade frozen yogurt! It is creamy, rich in protein compared to traditional frozen yogurt and we even added maple syrup for sweetness and flavour.

Ingredients

  • 2 bottles (470 mL) Vanilla Ensure® Plus Calories
  • 250 mL (1 cup) plain Mediterranean-style yogurt, 8-10% MF
  • 80 mL ( cup) pure maple syrup
  • A pinch of salt

How to make

  1. In a medium to large bowl, mix Ensure® Plus Calories, yogurt, maple syrup, and salt.
  2. If you have an ice cream maker, pour mixture into ice cream maker and follow manufacturer’s directions.
  3. Alternatively, to make frozen yogurt without an ice cream maker, pour mixture into a wide shallow container and freeze, uncovered.
  4. As mixture starts to freeze near the edges (after approximately 1 hour), remove container from the freezer and stir vigorously with a spatula to break up any frozen sections. If you have one, use a hand-held mixer or stick blender to do this. Return to freezer.
  5. Repeat this process every 30-45 minutes until mixture is frozen and has reached a consistency of your liking. This should take approximately
    3 hours.
  6. Once evenly frozen, store in an airtight container with a lid.

Tip

Serve this frozen yogurt recipe in your favourite cone or a bowl drizzled with extra maple syrup and/or chopped walnuts.
