Ingredients
Scale
Fruit and Yogurt
- 2 Cups Blueberries, rinsed and dried
- 1 Cup Vanilla Greek Yogurt
Chocolate Coating
- 1 Cup Chocolate Chips
- 1 Teaspoon Coconut Oil
Optional
- Sea Salt, to sprinkle
Instructions
- Prepare Blueberries: Wash your blueberries thoroughly and dry them well to remove excess moisture. Place the cleaned blueberries into a large mixing bowl.
- Coat with Yogurt: Add the vanilla Greek yogurt to the bowl with the blueberries. Gently toss the blueberries until they are fully coated with yogurt.
- Freeze Clusters: Using a spoon, scoop the yogurt-covered blueberries into 6-8 evenly sized clusters and place them onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Freeze these clusters for 20 minutes to solidify.
- Melt Chocolate: In a small bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 2 increments of 30 seconds each, stirring thoroughly between increments until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
- Dip Clusters in Chocolate: Remove the frozen clusters from the freezer. Quickly dip each yogurt-coated blueberry cluster into the melted chocolate, allowing a shell to form over the top.
- Optional Seasoning and Serving: Sprinkle sea salt over the chocolate-coated clusters if desired. Enjoy immediately or store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Notes
- Ensure blueberries are completely dry before coating with yogurt to help the yogurt stick better.
- Use vanilla Greek yogurt for added sweetness and flavor; plain yogurt can be substituted but might be tarter.
- The coconut oil helps make the chocolate coating smooth and easier to dip.
- Keep the clusters frozen until just before serving to maintain their shape and texture.
- Sea salt enhances the flavor contrast but is optional based on preference.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep the chocolate from melting and to maintain freshness.
