If you're looking for a dessert that's refreshing, indulgent, and not too sweet, this is the one for you. Ninja Creami does all the work for a creamy texture, with chunks of apricot that burst in your mouth!
Ingredients :
- 200g of plain Greek yogurt (perfect for a creamy and light texture)
- 200 ml of milk
- 2 tablespoons of agave syrup (or adjust to your taste)
- 150g of fresh or frozen apricots (cut into small pieces)
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (optional, but it adds a nice roundness)
- A pinch of salt (optional, but it brings out the flavors)
Preparation :
- Prepare the apricot yogurt base.
In a bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, whole milk, agave syrup, and vanilla extract. Then, add about 100g of chopped apricots and mix well. The apricots will provide a fruity sweetness that pairs perfectly with the creaminess of the yogurt. At this point, it already smells amazing! - Pour into the Ninja Creami container.
Pour everything into the Ninja Creami container, being careful not to exceed the MAX FILL . Then, place it in the freezer for 24 hours . Yes, this step requires the most patience, but it's well worth the wait for perfect ice cream. - Churn with the Ice Cream program.
The next day, insert the container into the Ninja Creami and start the "Ice Cream" . In just a few minutes, you'll have creamy apricot and yogurt ice cream, ready to enjoy. But wait, we're going to make it even better! - Add the apricot pieces using the Extra mode.
For even more texture, add the remaining 50g of apricots in small pieces and use the "Mix-In" to thoroughly incorporate them. This step will allow you to get apricot pieces in every bite, perfect for contrasting the creaminess of the yogurt with the fruitiness of the apricot. - Respin Tip:
If the texture is a little too firm after the first cycle, use the Respin to soften the ice cream. If necessary, add a little milk to adjust the consistency and achieve an even creamier texture.
My Personal Tip:
For an extra touch of indulgence, you can add some homemade granola or toasted almond slivers on top before serving. It adds a delightful crunch that pairs perfectly with the fruity flavor of the apricots. And if you want even more freshness, a drizzle of honey or even some chopped mint will elevate this dessert.
Your apricot frozen yogurt is ready! It's a light, refreshing, and fruity dessert. Greek yogurt provides a creamy, airy texture, while the apricots enhance the flavor with their sweet and tangy notes. With Ninja Creami, the texture is perfect, and you'll get those apricot pieces in every spoonful for a perfect contrast between the creamy and fruity textures. Enjoy without moderation!
