Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 2 cups fresh or frozen mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons water
- 4 leaves fresh mint leaves (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
Place the mixed berries, sugar, water, and lemon juice in a small saucepan. Stir well to combine.
Heat the saucepan over medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer.
Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the berries begin to break down and the sauce thickens slightly.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the berry sauce to cool to room temperature.
In a medium bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt and honey until well combined.
Divide the yogurt evenly among four serving bowls.
Once the berry sauce has cooled, spoon it over the yogurt in each bowl.
Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired and serve immediately.
