Blackberry Frozen Yoghurt


Summer lovin' is all about getting reacquainted with my icecream machine! But hey, we're (trying to be) on a health kick here so lets bring on the frozen yoghurt! I was really happy to find how well this recipe worked out- it was so creamy and delicious it really wiped the floor of those supermarket frozen yoghurts. My guess is that it comes down to ingredients - using good quality yoghurt as the base is a must!





Ingredients (Adapted from Frozen Yogurt Recipes)


  • 1/2 cup evaporated milk
  • 2 tsp gelatin
  • 1 punnet blackberries
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 2 egg whites
  • 2 cups whole yoghurt
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • Pinch of salt

Method


In a saucepan, heat the milk over low heat until just below boiling point

Remove from the heat and add the sugar and gelatin; stir until all combined

Whisk the egg yolks until light and frothy

Return the milk to low heat and add the egg yolks slowly; the mixture should thicken
Leave to cool to room temperature then whisk in the vanilla and yoghurt.

Chill for 1 hour
Whisk the egg whites in another bowl until soft peaks form

Fold the egg whites into the milk mixture
Return to the fridge to chill well then churn in icecream maker as per manufacturer's instructions
Just before fully churned add the blackberries; crush a few before adding to add colour to the yoghurt
Enjoy
