- 1 cup Low-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the blueberries, 1/4 cup of the sugar, and the water.
Step 2
Cook the mixture for about 5 minutes, until the blueberries burst and the mixture slightly thickens.
Step 3
Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature, then blend it until smooth.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the low-fat milk, Greek yogurt, honey, remaining 1/4 cup of sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 5
Pour the milk mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it has a soft-serve consistency.
Step 6
Transfer half of the churned ice cream into a freezer-safe container.
Step 7
Drizzle half of the blueberry mixture over the ice cream and use a spatula to gently swirl the blueberries into the ice cream.
Step 8
Add the remaining ice cream on top, and drizzle with the rest of the blueberry mixture, swirling again.
Step 9
Cover the container with a lid or plastic wrap and freeze the ice cream for at least 2-4 hours until firm.
Step 10
Allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping and serving.
