My three boys are spending their summer running around the house, playing in the back yard and taking small trips to our local farm. Â It’s so hot, that we’ve been looking to cool off any way we can. Â For the most part this has meant drinking lots of water, eating popsicles and making frozen yogurt.
A little over a year ago, I was gifted with an ice cream maker. Â At the time, I wasn’t sure it would get used very often, but I was wrong. Â It has been one of the most used appliances in my cupboards this summer. Â Making frozen treats, doesn’t have to be a time consuming production that has you searching for fancy ingredients.
Making a healthy, high protein treat can be simple and easy to include your children in the process. Â This recipe, has 3 wholesome ingredients. I use real maple syrup when making this yogurt. Â Yes, it costs a bit more, but trust me, the flavor is so much better.
Those sugary frozen yogurt pints at the store? You won’t buy them again, I promise.
