Natural yoghurt by itself can be fairly boring and it’s always great to spice things up with a really healthy foundation such as this. This recipe makes ample use of the yoghurt, whipping it into soft indulgent peaks and lightly sweetening with sugar-free syrup, lemon juice, and wild berries. If you like a little crunch, adding a few chopped walnuts really sets this creamy dish apart from the rest and makes for a nourishing, satisfying snack or after-dinner dessert.
Ingredients
For the berry topping:
- 400g frozen mixed berries (blackcurrants, strawberries, raspberries and blackberries)
- 2 tablespoons SweetFreedom dark syrup (sugar-free)
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
For the whipped yoghurt:
- 250g fat-free natural yoghurt
- 1 tbsp SweetFreedom light syrup (sugar-free)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
Method
- In a pan, heat all the berry topping ingredients, cover and let simmer for 15 minutes. The berries should all have softened completely.
- Leave to cool in the fridge for around 1 hour.
- For the whipped yoghurt, mix the yoghurt, syrup and vanilla with a handheld mixer. Beat on low-medium speed until the mixture is thick and forms soft peaks and clings to the beater when pulled out. This should take around 5-10 minutes.
- Divide the yoghurt mixture into individual glasses, spoon some of the berry topping onto each and finally sprinkle with a few chopped walnuts.
- Dig in!
