The weather here in Oregon has been so strange. The summer got a late start, being cool and wet into July. And now, just days after school has started around here, it is 98 degree out!
I know most bloggers would have posted a frozen yogurt recipe in June, but I’m feeling as unpredictable as the weather.

My frozen yogurt recipe couldn’t be simpler. It only has three ingredients: plain yogurt, cream and homemade freezer jam. I have an overabundance of freezer-jam and I didn’t even make any this year. Last year, when faced with all the lovely berries that grow here in such abundance, I… well, I just went overboard. If you do not have the same problem, I’ll give instructions for using fresh or frozen fruit.
Ingredients
- 2 cups plain yogurt, not low-fat (I use my homemade yogurt)
- 3/4 cup cream (heavy, whipping or my favorite: skimmed from the top of raw milk)
- 1 cup of jam (I used strawberry) or 1 cup of chopped fruit and your preferred sweetener to taste (I’d go with 1/4 cup of honey)
- Optional: 1 teaspoon of vanilla
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor.
- Run until desired consistency (chunky or smooth).
- Place in ice-cream maker and wait until frozen.

That’ s it. You now have a frozen yogurt not to be rivaled: sweet, tangy, rich. (My mouth is watering just thinking about it!)
Eat with abandon, knowing in your heart that this treat is healthy enough for breakfast, but decadent enough for a wonderful dessert.
Hmm… healthy enough for breakfast… I wonder how this would be topped with my homemade granola?
I think I’ll find out tomorrow morning.
Enjoy!
This looks and sounds wonderful! I may have to try it when we get a warm day again.
Thanks Jenni! I don’t think you’ll be disappointed (except when it is all gone).
I’m only here to call you names and stick my tongue out at you.
“OVER-ACHIEVER!!”

Soliloquy! You have no idea how big my smile is right now. I’ve missed you. Great to hear from you, even if it is only to be taunted.
[...] so last week it was hot, hot, hot around here and I told you how to make homemade frozen yogurt. Well, the last couple of days things have cooled down to the mid-sixties and I am making soup. [...]
