Ingredients
  

2 cups ripe peaches, peeled and diced

1 cup plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust based on desired sweetness)

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely grated

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

1/4 cup crushed graham crackers (for the crust)

2 tablespoons melted coconut oil

Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, melted coconut oil, and a pinch of salt. Stir the mixture until the crumbs are evenly coated with oil. Firmly press this crust mixture into the bottom of an 8x8-inch baking dish to create an even layer. For best results, refrigerate the crust while you prepare the filling.

    Blend the Filling: In a blender or food processor, add the diced peaches, Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), grated ginger, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Taste the filling and adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more honey or maple syrup if needed.

      Assemble the Squares: Remove the crust from the refrigerator. Carefully pour the peach-ginger yogurt filling over the chilled graham cracker crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Gently tap the dish on the counter to eliminate any air bubbles for a smoother texture.

        Freeze: Cover the baking dish tightly with plastic wrap or a lid. Place it in the freezer and allow it to freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until the filling is completely firm.

          Cut into Squares: Once the squares are fully frozen, take the dish out of the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes to soften slightly. Using a sharp knife, cut the dessert into squares. If the squares are difficult to cut, dipping the knife in warm water can help.

            Serve: Serve the peach ginger squares immediately for a refreshing treat, or transfer them to an airtight container for storage in the freezer. Enjoy these delightful squares on a warm day or as a sweet dessert anytime!
