Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups Greek yogurt
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients: Greek yogurt, fresh raspberries, honey, and vanilla extract. Ensure ingredients are fresh and at cool room temperature.
- Wash the fresh raspberries gently under cool running water. Pat them dry using clean paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- In a medium mixing bowl, add the Greek yogurt, ensuring it is smooth and creamy.
- Pour the vanilla extract into the yogurt and stir gently to distribute the flavor evenly throughout the yogurt.
- Drizzle the honey over the yogurt, using a soft spatula to swirl it lightly through the mixture, creating a marbled effect.
- Carefully fold in most of the fresh raspberries, reserving a few for garnish. Be gentle to avoid crushing the berries completely.
- Divide the yogurt mixture between two serving bowls or glasses.
- Garnish the top of each serving with the remaining fresh raspberries.
- For added visual appeal and optional texture, you can sprinkle a few additional raspberries on top or add a light drizzle of extra honey.
- Serve immediately, or chill in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes for a more refreshing experience.
Tips
- Choose Full-Fat Greek Yogurt: For the creamiest texture and richest flavor, opt for full-fat Greek yogurt.
- Use Fresh Raspberries: Fresh, ripe raspberries make a significant difference in taste and presentation.
- Honey Temperature Matters: Use room temperature honey for easier mixing and better flavor distribution.
- Gentle Folding Technique: When adding raspberries, fold gently to maintain their shape and prevent mushing.
- Chill for Enhanced Flavor: While delicious immediately, letting the yogurt chill for 15-20 minutes can intensify the flavor melding.
- Customize Your Garnish: Experiment with additional toppings like granola, chia seeds, or mint leaves for extra texture and visual appeal.
- Storage Tip: If not serving immediately, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
