In recent years, frozen yogurt has surged in popularity as a healthier alternative to traditional ice cream. Many health-conscious individuals are drawn to its lighter texture and lower fat content, but it is not just the taste that makes frozen yogurt so appealing. One of the standout features of frozen yogurt, particularly Greek yogurt, is its impressive nutritional profile. Greek yogurt is packed with probiotics, which promote gut health, and it boasts a higher protein content compared to regular yogurt. This makes it a more satisfying choice for those seeking a nutritious treat.

Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

¼ cup honey or maple syrup (adjust to your desired sweetness)

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ cup strawberry jam

Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Strawberry Layer: In a blender or food processor, combine the hulled and sliced fresh strawberries, honey (or maple syrup), lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Blend the mixture until it reaches a smooth consistency. Taste the puree and adjust sweetness by adding more honey or syrup if needed.

    Combine Yogurt and Strawberry Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, pour the smooth strawberry puree into the Greek yogurt. Using a spatula, gently fold the strawberry mixture into the yogurt until the colors blend harmoniously, creating a beautiful pink hue.

      Prepare the Strawberry Jam: In a separate small bowl, mix the strawberry jam with a pinch of salt. This small adjustment helps to balance the sweetness of the jam and enhances its fruity flavor profile.

        Mold the Coins: Using a silicone coin mold or muffin tray, pour the yogurt mixture into each mold, filling them about halfway. Then, add a small dollop of the prepared strawberry jam on top of the yogurt layer. Finish by topping with additional yogurt to fill the molds completely, ensuring that the jam is sandwiched between the layers.

          Freeze: Carefully place the molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze for at least 4 to 6 hours, or until they are completely solid.

            Serve: Once frozen, remove the coins from the molds by gently pushing them from the bottom up. Serve them immediately for a refreshing treat, or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

              Enjoy Your Treats: These frozen yogurt strawberry jam coins hold a delightful flavor and make perfect snacks or desserts for hot days. Feel free to explore different fruit jams or yogurt flavors to customize your treats!
