Ingredients

Ripe raspberries – Fresh raspberries add vibrant color, natural sweetness, and a bright tart flavor. Frozen fruit works well too!
Monk fruit sweetener or granulated white sugar – Sweetener helps balance the tartness of the berries while enhancing their natural fruity flavor.
Greek yogurt, full-fat – Full-fat Greek yogurt creates a rich, creamy texture while adding protein and a delicious tangy taste.
2% Milk – It helps blend everything smoothly and contributes to a soft, scoopable frozen yogurt consistency. You can substitute this for a vanilla protein shake for an added protein boost.

Instructions

1. In a small mixing bowl, combine the raspberries and sweetener. Let them sit for 15 minutes until the berries start to release their juices.

2. Add the Greek yogurt and milk to the bowl. Use an immersion blender to blend until combined, but be careful not to overmix.

3. Pour the mixture into the Ninja Creami pint container, making sure not to go over the max fill line.

4. Place the container on a level surface in the freezer and let it freeze for 24 hours or until solid.

5. Once frozen, remove the container from the freezer and run it under hot water for 30 seconds to loosen the sides.

6. Place the container in the outer bowl of the Ninja Creami, lock the lid into place, and insert it into the Ninja Creami ice cream maker. Press the Lite Ice Cream button and allow the cycle to complete.

Tips and Tricks

Want ultra-creamy frozen yogurt? Add ½ teaspoon xanthan gum before freezing to maintain a much creamier texture.
Chop mix-ins into small pieces so they distribute evenly and blend smoothly.
Place the pint on a level surface in your freezer to prevent freezing at an angle.
If the frozen yogurt is too hard, use the Re-spin function for a softer consistency.
Let the frozen pint sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes or run under hot water for 30 seconds before spinning to prevent icy chunks.
If a dome forms on top while freezing, try freezing without the lid or scrape off any excess before spinning to protect your blades.
If you’re looking to reduce sugar content, consider using natural sweeteners like honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar for a different flavor profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different type of yogurt?
Yes! You can use plain yogurt, fat-free yogurt, or even coconut milk for a dairy-free option. The fat content will affect the creaminess, so full-fat yogurt will give the best results.

Can I use frozen raspberries instead of fresh raspberries?
Yes! Frozen raspberries work just as well as fresh raspberries in this recipe. Simply thaw them slightly before blending to help them combine more easily with the other ingredients.

Can I make this frozen yogurt higher in protein?
Absolutely! Replace the milk with a vanilla protein shake or add a scoop of your favorite protein powder to increase the protein content while maintaining a creamy texture.

Can I add mix-ins to raspberry frozen yogurt?
Yes! Chocolate chips, white chocolate chunks, granola, crushed cookies, or extra fresh raspberries make delicious mix-ins. Add them after the first spin and use the Mix-In function on your Ninja Creami.

Why is my Ninja Creami frozen yogurt crumbly after the first spin?
A crumbly or powdery texture is completely normal. The frozen yogurt simply needs additional processing. Use the Re-spin function once or twice until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. You can also add a tablespoon of instant pudding mix to the base before freezing for a softer texture.

How long does homemade frozen yogurt last in the freezer?
Frozen yogurt can be stored in the Ninja Creami pint container for up to 2 weeks. For the best texture and flavor, re-spin the frozen yogurt before serving if it has been stored for several days.
