Blueberry Yogurt Ice Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Place the caster sugar and blueberries together in a saucepan, stir in 250ml (8fl oz) of cold water and bring to the boil.
• Simmer for about 10 to 12 minutes.
• When the blueberries are tender remove the pan from the heat.
• Take out approx 1/4 of the blueberres from the pan and put to one side to cool and use later.
• Using a food processor or blender, take the remaining mixture from the pan and blend it with the cassis, then pour into a bowl and allow to cool.
• Whip the double (heavy) cream and fold it into the bowl of blended mixture along with the yoghurt and berries which were placed to one side earlier.
• Transfer the complete mixture into an ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Steps:

• Combine 1/4 cup of the blueberries, 2 tablespoons water, 1 tablespoon honey and the thyme sprigs in a small heavy saucepan. Coarsely mash the blueberries using a fork or a potato masher. Place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Remove the pan from the heat, cover and let the mixture stand for 15 minutes. Uncover the pan and let the syrup cool slightly. Discard the thyme sprigs.
• Place the remaining blueberries, remaining 1/3 cup honey, yogurt, agave, lemon juice and cooled blueberry syrup in a blender or food processor. Blend until the mixture is almost smooth.
• Transfer the yogurt mixture to a shallow glass baking dish, cover and freeze until slushy, about 2 hours. Using a fork, stir to blend. Continue to freeze until firm, at least 8 hours or overnight. Using the tines of a fork, scrape the mixture into small serving bowls or glasses. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• A full 24 hours before you make your frozen yogurt, place your ice cream insert into the freezer.
• Add the sugar, vanilla, blueberries and lemon juice to a saucepan over medium heat and stir well. Press the berries with the back of a wooden spoon so the berries burst. When the sugar has dissolved, remove from the heat. Let cool then refrigerate until well chilled, about 2 hours.
• Add the chilled berry mixture to a food processor. Pulse until smooth, then add the yogurt and continue to blend until completely mixed.
• Turn your ice cream machine on and pour in the yogurt mixture. Churn until the mixture looks slushy, like soft serve, 12 to 15 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the freezer for several hours until it's scoopable.
