Learn how to make this Strawberry Fruit Yogurt Recipe at home for a healthy treat your kids can enjoy at home or school!

Fresh Fruit Yogurt with Strawberries

I’ve never been a big fan of yogurt, especially those filled with sugar and artificial colorings. Recently, though, I needed to buy Greek yogurt for baking. I decided to add fresh strawberries to the leftovers and have it for an afternoon snack with my boys. We were immediately sold!

Once you try this Fruit Yogurt Recipe, plain yogurt will never be the same. The recipe is soooo simple! You will be able to make your own flavored yogurt with real fruit and none of that high fructose corn syrup or mystery ingredients found in the store-bought yogurts.

It’s healthy, delicious, and feels like a treat! This time, I’m using strawberries but I’ll share with you other fruit ideas that can also hold their texture great.

Ingredients for Fruit Yogurt

When you have yogurt and fruit, you don’t need any weird ingredients to make this delicious fruit yogurt recipe! Check what you need to know:

Strawberries: my go-to fruit for this recipe, but you can use others. More on this below.
Plain Greek yogurt: you can also use your own homemade yogurt.
Honey or maple syrup: optional for a touch of sweetness.
Toppings: your favorites! I like adding toasted almonds or granola.

Using Other Fresh Fruits

You could always swap the strawberries for another fruit that’s easy to mash, like sliced peaches or ripe mango. I don’t recommend bananas since they are likely to brown when stored in the ridge and make this snack a little unappealing.

How to Make Strawberry Fruit Yogurt

Got your ingredients and a bowl? Good! Let’s make this delicious Strawberry Fruit Yogurt Recipe in no time:

Mash strawberries
Use a bowl and a fork to mash the strawberries and release their natural juices.
Combine
Add Greek yogurt and combine. If you want to make it sweeter, add honey or maple syrup to taste. You can also make individual yogurt cups by placing the mashed fruit in 8-ounce jars and topping them with yogurt.

How to Serve Homemade Strawberry Yogurt

Sometimes I add something crunchy on the top, like granola, toasted almonds, or chopped nuts, and I have a wonderful afternoon snack my kids and I eat right from the bowl.

You can also use this fruit yogurt recipe to make a parfait and pack it for lunch in a thermos as a healthy and sweet side. Need something to serve with breakfast? This yogurt is also a great side on busy mornings!

How to Pack Homemade Strawberry Yogurt for Lunch

You can pack this strawberry yogurt for lunch in small containers and freeze it overnight. Pop it into your packed lunch the next day and it will be cold and thawed by lunchtime. I found these molds on Amazon, but any small container does the trick.

¾ cup plain Greek yogurt
Drizzle of honey or maple syrup, optional
Toppings: toasted almonds, pecans, or granola

Test for sweetness and add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup to your desired sweetness. Stir to combine.

Notes

If you want to turn this into individual yogurt cups, instead of mixing everything in one large bowl, add the mashed fruit to the bottom of an 8-ounce jar, top with yogurt, and seal. When ready to serve, drizzle with the honey, and enjoy!
