Eileen Gray
Homemade Frozen Yogurt flavored with honey and vanilla bean is a sweet, tangy and creamy treat that is absolutely simple to make.

Servings:8 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 quart plain whole-milk yogurt (not Greek yogurt)
  • 4 oz sugar (½ cup)
  • 3 oz honey (¼ cup)
  • ½ Vanilla Bean (split & seeds removed)

Instructions

  • Place a sieve over a bowl and line the sieve with two layers of cheesecloth. Pour 1 quart plain whole-milk yogurt into the cheesecloth and fold the edges over the yogurt to cover. Set the yogurt in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours until a cup of liquid has drained from the yogurt.
  • Discard the liquid and put the yogurt into the bowl. Stir in 4 oz sugar, 3 oz honey and vanilla bean seeds. Let the mixture sit for 15-20 minutes in the refrigerator until all the sugar has dissolved.
  • Run the mixture in your ice cream machine according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Transfer the frozen yogurt to a plastic container and lay a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the yogurt. Cover the container and freeze at least 6-8 hours until solid. (see note)

Notes

Because of the honey this yogurt will not freeze rock-hard. It will be scoop-able right out of the freezer.
