If you like raspberries, their tartness, their unique sweetness and gorgeous flavor, then this is an ice cream for you.

It’s quick, easy to make, with only three ingredients, and will cool you down from the summer heat in the best way possible. You just need to have a powerful food processor or a super strong blender to make it, frozen raspberries, Greek yoghurt, honey and a tiny bit of vanilla if you want.

It’s best eaten a short while after you have made it, when it has sat in the freezer for a couple of hours to firm up but is still easy to scoop. When it stays in the freezer for many hours, it becomes super hard so when you want to serve it, you just need to move it to the fridge for about an hour to soften and become scoopable again. The reason this ice cream hardens so much is because it has a lot of ice crystals in it due to the high water content of the fruit and the lack of fat; there’s only the fat from the yoghurt which is just 10% as opposed to regular ice cream that contains egg yolks and cream, which has about 35% fat, and has a smoother and richer texture because of that. So if you’re looking for that kind of ice cream, take a look here and make the one that catches your eye.

This ice cream is fabulously refreshing and bright, with an incredible zingy taste that makes your taste buds come alive. It’s full of the flavor of the fruit with a mellow sweetness from the aromatic honey and an intensely vivid color from the raspberries.

I have made this ice cream several times the last few years and even though I love scooping it into nice round icy balls, my son prefers it as a popsicle. Your choice!

Raspberry yoghurt ice cream

Raspberries, especially frozen ones, tend to be tart, and Greek yoghurt has a tangy flavor so there’s the need for a sweetener. I prefer honey but you could use maple syrup or agave if you wish, although the kind and amount of sweetness they render differ to that of honey.
