Frozen Peach Yogurt
One of my personal favorites in the hot summer, nothing refreshes quite like a frozen yogurt. Frozen yogurt treats are all the rage now in the US i.e. Pinkberry...There is a good reason for the popularity of this dessert because not only is is tasty but it is very healthy for you! I first tasted frozen yogurt with fruit in a place called Sunshine Valley in Santa Monica, California and ever since then I am a big fan! Of course the yogurt that you get in Pinkberry and other places has a smooth and velvety texture that my homemade dessert lacks, but in order to get that kind of texture there is a whole other process involved, and I'm happy with the results of my quick alternative. It is really really tasty and hits the spot.
You’ll need:
Makes about 10 Yogurt pops
1 ½ cups of peach nectar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
¼ cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
½ liter of good plain yogurt
10 ice cream moulds
How to:
Cook the nectar on medium heat and stir in the sugar and lemon juice until it reduces a bit. Set aside to cool. In the meantime, mix together the yogurt and the powdered sugar and pour into the moulds until about ¾ full. When the nectar has cooled, use a teaspoon to fill the rest of the molds until you reach the top. With the use of a popsicle stick, stir the mixture so that the nectar spreads around the yogurt to create beautiful streaks. Tastes good and looks good this way. If the mould that you’re using does not come with a lid and an attached stick, then place an ice cream stick in the middle of each mould. You will need to place the yogurt into the freezer for at least 5 hours or until it freezes completely. In order to help you pull the yogurt out of its mould, just dip part of the mould in warm water and it will slide out very easily.
