If you thought my coconut yogurt and almond milk ice cream were fun, wait until you try my new frozen yogurt recipe . I’ve whipped up not one, but 5 amazing flavors, from vanilla to fruity to chocolate… and even peanut butter! My kids love these, and I feel good that their dessert (and mine) is really yogurt. And they’re all easy-breezy to make. So grab your spoon, choose your favorite flavor, and let’s make some delicious, homemade frozen yogurt!
Why You’ll Love My Frozen Yogurt Recipe
- Variety of flavors – Choose from fruity, chocolate, vanilla, peanut butter, and even a simple, elegant plain. Because I like to mix things up in my desserts.
- Perfectly creamy texture – No matter what flavor you choose, my frozen yogurt recipe is ultry creamy! It feels like you’re eating ice cream, but it’s healthier.
- Easier than making ice cream – I’ve made ice cream in dozens of ways, but frozen yogurt is even more simple. Not including churning, the prep takes me about 5 minutes.
- Healthy dessert – My recipe has just 90 calories and a few grams of sugar (just from the yogurt itself) per serving. And no processed ingredients, of course.
- Fun to make – This recipe is the perfect way to unleash some creativity in the kitchen, and the kids get a kick out of helping, too. Plus, as the coolest mom ever, I sometimes say yes to ice cream—okay, healthy frozen yogurt—for breakfast!
Ingredients & Substitutions
Here I explain the best ingredients for my homemade frozen yogurt recipe, what each one does, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card .
Basic Frozen Yogurt Ingredients:
Like I often do for recipes that have different flavors, I’ve got a base to start and you can customize it from there. Here are the basics for plain frozen yogurt:
- Whole Milk Plain Yogurt – You can also use Greek yogurt, but I’ve found that whole milk yogurt gives a smoother, creamier texture and it’s less tangy. If you need a dairy free option, try almond milk or coconut milk yogurt . And if you’ve got extra to use up, make my yogurt bark !
- Honey – You can use regular, but I prefer to use my natural sugar-free honey . It’s sweet and gooey, and the flavor is from real honey. You can substitute maple syrup too, I just think it’s less versatile for some of the flavor options.
- Heavy Cream – A splash of heavy cream gives my homemade frozen yogurt a rich and creamy texture that I haven’t seen in other recipes. You can easily swap it out for half-and-half or full-fat coconut milk for lighter options.
- Sea Salt – Just a pinch actually brings out the sweetness.
Add-Ins For Different Flavors:
Now for the fun part — flavors! Here are the ones I tested:
- Vanilla – The simplest one! Just add vanilla extract to my frozen yogurt recipe base above.
- Fruit – I use frozen fruit for this. Fresh should also work, but it’s more watery so your frozen yogurt might turn out a bit more icy. My ratio is 2 1/2 cups of fruit to a quart of yogurt. You’ll need a blender or food processor to combine them. I made strawberry frozen yogurt for the pics, but you can use any fruit you want! Try blueberries, raspberries, or peaches.
- Chocolate – Add cocoa powder and vanilla. I recommend Dutch processed cocoa powder because it avoids any bitter taste.
- Peanut Butter – Add some creamy peanut butter to the mix. This flavor turns out a bit harder than the others, but it’s so good with the honey!
How To Make Frozen Yogurt
I have step-by-step photos here to help you visualize the recipe. For full instructions with amounts and temperatures, see the recipe card .
- Mix the ingredients. In a large bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the flavor you are making, until smooth. If you opted for the fruit flavor, blend in a high-powered blender or food processor . And if it’s not super cold by the time you’re done mixing, cover tightly with plastic wrap and freeze briefly (or refrigerate) to make it cold again. Don’t miss my tips below regarding this step!
- Churn until creamy. Pour the mixture into a pre-frozen ice cream maker bowl ( I have this one and love it). Churn according to manufacturer’s instructions, until the mixture reaches the texture of soft-serve ice cream.
- Pop in the freezer. Transfer to a glass container (I used this one , but a stainless steel one like this also works), and smooth the top. Cover and freeze your homemade frozen yogurt for at least 4 hours or overnight, until firm.
My Recipe Tips
- Make sure your ice cream maker bowl is totally frozen before you start. How long to freeze varies by manufacturer, but I always pop mine in the freezer a full 24 hours ahead to be safe.
- Ensure the mixture is refrigerator-cold before churning. The ideal temp is 40-45 degrees F (4-7 degrees C). If you take your ingredients out of the fridge and work quickly, you can churn right after mixing them together. But if they sit out for a bit (um, like what happens when you have to take process pictures like me), cover the mixture in plastic wrap, flush against the surface of the yogurt, and freeze for 15-20 minutes, until cold. You can also just leave the mixture in the fridge for a few hours and churn later.
- With the exception of the fruit flavor, whisking works better than blending. My original plan was to blend all the flavors, but I found that whisking works better for the right texture — the mixture is thinner if you blend the versions without fruit.
- Be patient with the ice cream maker. My ice cream maker usually takes about 25 minutes to get that perfect texture, but it can vary. Look for that soft-serve consistency!
- Yes, you can make frozen yogurt without an ice cream maker! If you don’t have one, just skip the churning step. Pour your mix directly into the container and freeze. You’ll need to give it a stir every 30 minutes for the first 4 hours to prevent ice crystals from forming, so that’s why I prefer my ice cream maker.
- Let it sit at room temp for a bit before serving. I recommend removing it from the freezer 15-20 minutes ahead to make it easier to scoop. My frozen yogurt recipe doesn’t have the additives that store-bought ones have to make them soft right out of the freezer.
Topping Ideas
You can certainly enjoy this frozen yogurt recipe plain, but I love toppings! And you can mix and match them. Try any combo of these:
- Syrup – A drizzle of my sugar-free chocolate syrup goes with any flavor! I also love sugar-free caramel sauce on the plain one.
- Whipped Cream – Use regular if it works for you, or keep it light with my sugar-free whipped cream .
- Fruit – Fresh berries make the perfect juicy garnish. They’re probably my favorite frozen yogurt toppings of all.
- Chopped Nuts – Sprinkle on some chopped almonds, walnuts, or pecans for crunch. Of course I add peanuts on the peanut butter flavored version.
- Granola – My kids like a handful of my homemade granola on top of their frozen yogurt for that breakfast-y feel.
- Chocolate Chips – Any kind you like adds extra dessert-ish vibes! I like these sugar free chocolate chips .
My Tools For This Recipe
- Ice Cream Maker – Mine fits a large batch and has lasted me for years.
- For The Fruit Flavor – Depending on what’s ready to go in my kitchen, I use either my blender or food processor . Both are powerful enough to handle the frozen fruit in my homemade frozen yogurt.
- Containers – I repurposed my glass meal prep containers this time, but also like using a stainless steel one like this sometimes.

The Basic Keto Meal Formula
Eating keto doesn’t have to be complicated! While there are plenty of delicious easy keto recipes to choose from, you don’t even have to cook from a recipe to get started.
Simply follow the keto cheat sheet formula of protein + veggie + fat for your meals.
Be sure to choose a moderate amount of protein, only low carb vegetables (mostly ones that grow above ground), and generous fat to attain an optimal macro ratio. That’s approximately 60-75% of calories from fat, 20-25% protein, and 5-10% from carbohydrates. The table below will give you ideas for what to choose.
| Pick A Protein | Pick A Veggie | Add Fat |
|---|---|---|
| Beef Chicken Pork Eggs Lamb Turkey Fish Shellfish Protein powder Venison | Cauliflower Broccoli Zucchini Leafy Greens Cucumbers Brussels Sprouts Cabbage Asparagus Radishes Bell Peppers Jicama Celery | Butter Avocado Oil Cheese Bacon Avocado Lard Ghee Mayo Nuts MCT Oil |
Understanding Macros
Macros are macronutrients for short. They include fat, protein, and carbohydrates.
You can calculate your own macros using the macro calculator , but the macro keto cheat sheet below will explain how to look at macros when following a keto lifestyle.
Carbs Are A Limit.
Keeping carbs low is what gets you into ketosis and keeps you there. Ketosis means that you’re using fat as your primary energy source instead of sugar, and requires keeping carbs very low.
A good starting point is 20-25 grams net carbs per day, but you can experiment after a few weeks to see if your body stays in ketosis at higher levels. People who are very active may be able to do more and stay in ketosis, up to around 50 grams per day.
“Carbs are a limit” means that you set a limit for how many carbs to eat per day and don’t exceed it. You don’t have to hit that limit, so if you’re under that’s okay, just don’t go over. Ideally most of your carbs would come from low carb vegetables, and if you’re eating enough veggies, you’ll usually get close to the limit naturally.
A common misconception is that reaching ketosis requires a certain macro ratio, but it’s really only restricting your carb intake that gets you there [ * ]. In the absence of sufficient carbs to use as energy, the body will switch to using fat as fuel. This is called the metabolic state of ketosis.
Protein Is A Goal.
Protein is made up of amino acids, the building blocks of all our cells. It’s a crucial for keeping our muscles strong and for many cellular functions [ * ].
“Protein is a goal” means that you always want to eat enough protein to reach the goal each day, but not exceed it too much. You want enough for your needs, but excess protein can trigger gluconeogenesis, which is protein being converted to sugar [ * ] and can kick you out of ketosis.
Fat Is A Lever.
Fat is the primary macronutrient in a keto lifestyle, because being in ketosis means that fat is your primary fuel source. Fat as a fuel source will come from your food, and if you are losing weight, from your body.
A big advantage of a keto lifestyle is the high fat intake. It keeps you full and satisfied, making it easier to stick to, and using it as the primary fuel source makes it easier on your body to burn body fat, with a lower chance of breaking down your muscle (provided you get enough protein).
Aside from reaching your protein goal and limiting your carbs, the remainder of your calories on a keto diet comes from fat.
Don’t fear fat – it’s your main energy source on keto, and getting enough of it trains your body to use fat for fuel instead of sugar. That means that as long as you are not overdoing your overall calorie intake, you’ll efficiently burn your body fat for fuel as well.
“Fat is a lever” means that you can increase or decrease your fat intake depending on your goals and hunger levels. Increase it (along with exercise) to gain muscle, or decrease it to lose weight.
Keto Food Swaps
One of my favorite challenges is creating recipes, or just discovering, keto food swaps. These are delicious keto replacements for traditionally high-carb or high-sugar foods.

Keto Food List
When looking for a keto cheat sheet printable, the most-requested information is a keto food list.
The great thing is that keto doesn’t have to feel restrictive. It’s incredibly satisfying and there’s such a wide variety of foods you can eat!
Foods To Eat On Keto
- Leafy greens – Such as spinach, chard, and lettuce.
- Above-ground veggies – Such as peppers, zucchini, and cauliflower.
- Full-fat cream & cheese – Such as heavy cream, sour cream, and full-fat hard cheeses.
- Natural meats – Such as beef, lamb, and pork.
- Berries – Such as raspberries, blackberries, and strawberries.

Electrolyte Basics
Getting enough electrolytes is crucial for anyone, but especially so on a keto diet. The reason is that ketosis has a diuretic effect, which increases excretion of water and electrolytes, especially sodium [ * ]. This is often the cause of the keto flu.
For more details on electrolytes and avoiding keto flu, check out the full keto flu guide here .
The important thing to know about electrolytes is that replenishing them will keep keto flu away and keep your body functioning well. I always recommend an electrolyte drink and whole food sources of anything your body needs before resorting to supplements, so I made a list of what to eat to get each of the 3 major electrolytes – sodium, magnesium and potassium.
Here’s your keto diet cheat sheet for getting electrolytes from food:
| Sodium | Magnesium | Potassium |
|---|---|---|
| Bone broth Boullion cubes Bacon Salted nuts Pickles | Seaweed Seeds Nuts Avocado Leafy greens | Potassium chloride Avocado Bone broth Spinach Broccoli Mushrooms Beef Pork |
Keto Diet Types
People follow a keto lifestyle for different reasons. Some do it just to lose weight, others are after better overall health, increased energy, and reduced inflammation.
Strictly speaking, the defining factor of a keto diet is the metabolic state of ketosis, which is achieved by restricting carbs. However, many people (myself included) also reduce or eliminate processed, inflammatory, or low-nutrient foods.
Below is your keto cheat sheet summary of the different ways that people follow keto. You choose what works best for your goals and lifestyle!
- Strict Keto – Up to 20-30g net carbs daily, count all calories and macros, and eat clean, unprocessed foods.
- Lazy Keto – Up to 20-30g net carbs daily, and track only net carbs OR eat keto foods without tracking.
- Dirty Keto – Up to 20-30g net carbs daily, with “if it fits your macros” approach including processed foods.
- Low Carb – Up to 50-100g net carbs daily, less strict.
