The coolest, easiest dessert. It kind of reminds me of the simplicity of baby food, the kind you throw fresh fruit in a food processor, blend for a few seconds and there you have it; baby fruit puree.
Yogurt, honey and fruit, particularly peaches, remind me of summers in Greece. The best breakfast for me is a bowl of fresh fruit, topped with a dollop of thick Greek yogurt and drizzled with honey. This combination is perfect to turn into a frozen dessert. Peaches are delicious and so flavourful this time of year, plus they work so well with yogurt and honey. No need to peel them, just throw them in the food processor with the rest of the ingredients.
Forget store-bought frozen yogurt. This is a keeper. Good enough for breakfast too.
