Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 480 ml Fat-free plain yogurt
- 60 ml Honey or agave syrup
- 5 ml Vanilla extract
- 7 g Powdered gelatin
- 30 ml Cold water
- 120 ml Fresh fruit puree (optional, for flavor)
- as needed Fresh fruit or mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the fat-free plain yogurt, honey (or agave syrup), and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
If using fresh fruit puree for flavor, gently fold it into the yogurt mixture until evenly distributed.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, sprinkle the powdered gelatin over the cold water and let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
Microwave the bloomed gelatin for about 10-15 seconds, or until it becomes completely liquid (but do not let it boil). Stir it to ensure it has fully dissolved.
Slowly whisk the melted gelatin into the yogurt mixture, making sure it is evenly incorporated to avoid lumps.
Pour the yogurt mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe container. Cover it with a lid or plastic wrap and place it in the freezer.
After 1 hour, remove the container from the freezer and use a whisk or hand mixer to stir the mixture until creamy. This helps prevent ice crystals from forming.
Repeat the whisking process every 30 minutes for the next 2-3 hours, or until the mixture has a smooth and mousse-like consistency.
Once the mousse has reached your desired texture, transfer it to serving bowls or cups and let it freeze for an additional 30 minutes to firm up slightly.
Garnish with fresh fruit or mint leaves, if desired, before serving. Enjoy your fat-free frozen yogurt mousse immediately or store it in the freezer for up to 1 week, allowing it to soften slightly before eating.
