Blackberry and Raspberry Frozen Yogurt



It's getting hot and steamy here in Texas, and I decided to make some frozen yogurt.  My son makes homemade yogurt in the Instant Pot and we had a surplus, and I found a recipe for this beautiful treat. 


A dear friend gave me this gorgeous purple Oxalis plant.  Another dear friend gave me the metal heart shaped basket so very long ago. 

My friend, Pat and I, had lunch at a tearoom/antique mall awhile back, and we both fell in love with this blackberry teacup, which is a Royal Worchester, Lavinia pattern.  We each bought one to give to each other.


This Blackberry Sage Tea refreshes, whether it's served hot or cold.  I don't know if it provides wisdom, like the canister says, but it is tasty!

Cissy and Harper and Hayden came over to have a slumber party at my house!!  Of course our time was filled with JOY!

Raspberry and Blackberry Yogurt

This frozen yogurt is so pretty and perfect for a hot summer day. My son makes yogurt in the Instant Pot and we had a surplus, and this frozen yogurt came to the rescue!

Ingredients:

  • 2 heaping cups raspberries and blackberries
  • 1 cup sugar, divided
  • 4 teaspoons  fresh lemon juice
  • 1 and 1/2 cups ( 2% or whole milk yogurt, standard or Greek (not nonfat)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • pinch of salt

Instructions:

  1. In a saucepan, combine the berries, 1/2 cup  of the sugar, and lemon juice. Mash the berries with a potato masher until they're broken up and juicy. Cook the berries over medium-high heat until the juices are thickened and jammy, 7 to 10 minutes. Use a rubber spatula to press the berries through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl and transfer to the refrigerator to cool completely. Discard the skins and seeds.
  2. When cool, whisk in the remaining sugar, yogurt, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt until the sugar has dissolved completely. Chill until completely cold, at least 2 hours, in the refrigerator then churn in an ice cream machine according to manufacturer's instructions. Enjoy immediately as soft serve or transfer the frozen yogurt to a freezer-safe container, cover and freeze until firm.

  3. I use my Instant Pot for mostly soup, vegetables, and beans. I have not explored using its other functions such as making yogurt or as a slow cooker. The blackberry frozen yogurt looks delicious.

  5. You know how to stay cool down there in Texas! In the Instant-Pot you say...hmmm...I have not graduated beyond boiled eggs. 😏 The girls look very happy and kept you on your toes I'm sure. Cissy must have been a big help.

  9. I don't think I've seen a teacup with a blackberry design before. How cute!

    I've been leaning into the fruity teas as the weather warms up. My A/C is broken so I'm beating the heat with ice cream and iced tea. The froyo looks great!

  13. My brother makes cheeses and yogurt too - but he lives 3 hours north at the lake so everyone is so lucky and gets some now and then. I need to go visit once it is safe to venture out again. Not yet for me.

    Your recipe - and the pic of it - mmm mmmm goooood!

    Weird weather here - it's been in the 60s while you guys are having a heat wave. So strange. But I love it! I took a tiny wee nap in my new hammock today!

    Your teacup is so sweet - never saw that pattern before! How perfect for this lovely post!!! And of course those 3 sweet lovelies - that's the best part of the post. Golly they're growing fast, Kitty. ♥♥♥ Your little angels!!!!!

    Funny you posted this b/c hubs and I decided we'd make strawberry ice cream tomorrow because the grand is visiting on Wednesday and it is her (insert drama here) her faaaaaaavorite! Haha! Anything pink for her, haha.

    Hugs.

  21. Oh my, your grand girlies are getting so big! The yogurt is so pretty and who wouldn't want to try some, especially served in such a pretty teacup and saucer?
