Fat Free Frozen Yogurt.




1 quart fat free  yogurt. We will use peach today. Adjust fruit according to flavor of yogurt. For strawberry yogurt add about a cup and a half cups chopped strawberries. For blueberries, I  smash some up and leave some blueberries whole.  Be Creative. Make a mixed berry yogurt.  The possibilities are endless.

If using Fresh Peaches U will have to blanch them.  Big word, easy to do!!  Blanching peaches loosens their skins and makes them super easy to peel. Put the peaches in the boiling water, making sure they are entirely submerged. Blanch them for 40 seconds. If peaches are slightly under-ripe, allow them to remain in the hot water a little longer – up to a full minute – to loosen the peel, it will also improve their flavor.








Use a slotted spoon to transfer blanched peaches to the bowl of ice water. Leave them to cool, about 1 minute. Drain the peaches and pat them dry. Using a small paring knif, cut a small cross into the top of the peach, using your fingers tear downward, the skin should peel right off.



Cut the canned or fresh peaches into small bite size pieces. Can use a food processor and process once or twice.  You don't want puree, u want bite sized chunks in the yogurt.

2 cups non fat milk.  We like to use fat free soy milk.  Can use almond milk too.
Optional: 1/2 cup sugar.  Ive never added the sugar, and it comes out just fine.

lots of ice
bag of rock salt


Mix milk, yogurt and sugar( if using) MIX THOROUGHLY.Add peaches.

Add to ice cream machine and make according to manufactures directions.  Eat while soft serve.

If u freeze the leftovers,( if there is any)let stand on counter for 10-15 minutes and stir it every few minutes as its thawing. U will break up the ice crystals and it will be creamier and smoother.
