Raspberry Frozen Yoghurt Bites

June 12, 2015 by Rosie 10 Comments

We love frozen yoghurt in our family – it’s delicious, yet much healthier than ice cream, especially if it’s homemade. Little M would eat it by the gallon if he could! I came up with the idea of using novelty ice cube trays to make ‘bite size’ frozen yoghurts – as a fun dessert that is also easy to portion out.

Raspberry-Frozen-Yoghurt-Bites-7

This recipe is easy peasy and a great one for toddlers to help out with – as it basically just involves mixing a few things together with a spoon. You’ll need to help out with the pouring into the ice cube trays though…

You can use any type of ice cube tray you like – hearts, lego men, sea creatures… I picked the heart shaped ones, as I’m a bit mushy like that, but you can use any that you fancy. I do think hearts are cute for Valentines Day, or another special day!

Raspberry-Frozen-Yoghurt-Bites

These frozen yoghurt bites are based on a frozen yoghurt recipe by Jack Monroe. The original recipe uses peanut butter, which is also yummy, but thought I’d try raspberries as something a bit summery!

You can use 200g peanut butter instead if you like though, or replace the raspberries with 100g of a different type of fruit or berry – whatever you like really. You can add a tablespoon or two of sugar, but I prefer to leave it out. If you want to make this healthier for every day you can leave out the white chocolate or add some carob chips instead. I like to add the white chocolate chips as an occasional treat – especially for Valentines Day!

Raspberry Frozen Yoghurt Bites

500g (18oz) natural yoghurt (you can also use low fat)

100g (3.5oz) frozen raspberries (or you can use fresh)

100ml (3oz) milk

Optional: 1-2 tablespoons of sugar

Optional: 100g (3.5 oz) white or dark chocolate chips (or carob chips)

2 novelty ice cube trays (or you can use ordinary ones)

 

1. Pour the yoghurt into a mixing bowl and stir in the raspberries and milk until thoroughly combined. Add the sugar if using. Stir in the chocolate or carob chips if using.

2. Put the whole bowl in the freezer, uncovered for 1 hour.

3. Remove from the freezer and stir well.

4. Put back in the freezer for another 30 minutes.

5. Remove from the freezer and stir thoroughly.

6. Spoon the mixture carefully into the ice cube trays. Scrape off any excess mixture from the trays.

7. Put back into the freezer for at least 4 hours.

8. Turn out of the trays and enjoy!

You can also bag up the bites and leave them in the freezer for later – or just leave them in the tray. If the bites get too hard after being in the freezer for too long, just leave them out for a few minutes to soften before eating. They make a pretty display for a special occasion, or just for fun any day!

What recipes do you like to make for a special day?

    Oh yum!!! These look delicious! I would use full fat yoghurt in mine. There is more and more research coming out to suggest that sugar is the baddie rather than fat…

      Oh yes definitely – agree. And little ones benefit from the nutrients in full fat milk and yoghurt. I sometimes use full fat and sometimes low fat – depending on what is in the fridge!

Question for #supplyteachers Have you been furloughed? I was last time, but have heard nothing from my agency this time so far. Wondering what your experience is?

Wow, it’s been a while! I took a bit of a soci Wow, it’s been a while! 

I took a bit of a social media break, as life took over. As it does from time to time. So taking the time to say hello to you all again.👋 

I’m Rosie and I love to share simple ideas to inspire kids to get arty, crafty and creative. 🎨 

I also 💚the outdoors and try to share this love of nature in many of my projects. 🌲 

This is me and my crew, back in October on my 40th birthday! A beautiful beachy day. 🏝 

Since then we’ve bought a house, moved and had one kiddo in isolation for 14 days 🤪- hence the radio silence. 

A break has helped me ditch the overwhelm and simplify my priorities. But now, I’m so ready to start getting creative again and bring on all the festive vibes! 🎄

When life gets overwhelming, don’t be afraid to step back and focus only on the things that are important. Take a breath, get outdoors and then reprioritise, one step at a time. ❤️

How are you doing with lockdowns, winter and festive preparation? What helps you step back and reprioritise?
What is your lasting memory of this past few month What is your lasting memory of this past few months with your kids?

For me it’s been bike rides and making things together. 🖍 ✂️ 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Funny how our minds gloss over the stresses of home school and lack of ‘me time’ 🤣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve not been on social media much lately - I’ve been making the most of the end of summer, adjusting to the ‘new normal’ and figuring out what is next for me now that my littlest has started school. 😊
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One thing I am doing is starting to sort through the pile of creations 🖼 (and clutter too!) in the house. It’s reminding me of all the lovely things we have done together (even when mum guilt sometimes tells me otherwise) and helping to clear my mind too. ❤️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’re feeling a little lost at the moment I can recommend a good sort out as a starting point! @whatkatysaiduk is a wonderful inspiration on decluttering. 🥰
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Are your children back at school, or are you still in the thick of homeschool? 
Anyone else swamped with projects from this year?! I’d love any ideas on how you like to organise art work!

We had a roarr-some time at @roarr_dinosauradventure in Norfolk last weekend.
With dinosaur trails, a splash zone, Jurassic putt and much more we all had an amazing family day. I was really impressed with the social distancing and safety measures in place too. Full review to follow soon!
Have you been on any fun family days out recently?
Is home school still happening in your family?! Af Is home school still happening in your family?! After 12 weeks of lockdown we’ve ditched ‘home school’ for ‘life school.’ So far the kids have made and decorated their own cakes, helped do laundry, vacuum and mop. 🧼 Plus lots of free play, projects and learning about topics they are interested in - mainly dinosaurs! 🦖 🦕 
I feel so much more relaxed for letting go of formal work! (Let’s face it there wasn’t much of it happening anyway...😬) But I was still pressuring myself mentally and it was starting to create power struggles (with my eldest very spirited child!) When you start doing things that you and the children are motivated to do it takes the pressure off everyone. And the miracle is that’s when the real learning happens! 🌟 
My son has even written about his fossil collection - a change from tearing my hair out to get him to write! The kids have played more independently too, as I’ve ‘left them to it’ more. Plus - the house is even starting to look just a little bit cleaner! 🧹

So if home school is just not happening anymore, I’d recommend doing an Elsa and just ‘Let it Goooo’. Swap it for ‘life school’ and I guarantee the kids will be learning equally valuable lessons. 💡Just do what works for your family. ❤️ Are you still home schooling? Do you feel like you’re trying to ‘do it all’? Or have you embraced a more flexible approach?

I’d love to hear any ideas you have that we could try? My kids love dinosaurs and creative things. Plus I’m trying to encourage independent playing and helping in the house, so all ideas welcome! 💡

I’ve been listening to black voices over the last few days. Thinking about the BLM movement and ways I can do more. I wasn’t sure whether to share, but I’ve learned it’s better to speak than to say nothing.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve always thought of myself as someone who embraces diversity. I’ve travelled, met and befriended people of all colours, nationalities and religions. As a teacher I’ve valued each child’s individuality, as well as seeing them all as equals. I try to encourage my children to be kind to all others.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But I realise this is NOT enough. I need to do more. If there’s one thing I’ve learned over the last week it’s that - we have to take ACTION against racism. It’s not enough to just ‘not be racist’, we have to be ANTI racist to make a change.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So what action do I commit to do?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
•Listen - keep listening to black people’s stories and struggles.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
•Educate - myself and my children further. Read books that spark CONVERSATIONS with my children and others. Keep learning and keep trying to do better.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
•Amplify - promote black voices, especially those in the fields of education and children.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’re a mama or a teacher and wondering how you can take ACTION against racism, I’d really recommend taking a look at @readlikearockstar and @apron_education - they have some brilliant resources to share with your kids. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you talk about racism with your kids? How are you taking action against racism?

Do your children ever say that they are 'bored'? 😑 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Children are the masters of their own creativity. 🖼 Given the time and space, children will think of ideas that will never fail to surprise you!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But sometimes we all have moments when we're at a loose end - children included. A little inspiration can go a long way. 💡 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Try putting some ideas for play and projects into a jar or box, ready for when inspiration is needed. 📦 You could include some of your ideas and some of your children's ideas. 👶 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
