Balsamic Cherry Frozen Yogurt

Prep time: 10 mins

Cook time: 6 hours

Total time: 6 hours 10 mins

Serves: 6

Ingredients

2 cups of yogurt
1 cup frozen cherries
½ cup sugar
¼ tsp salt
2 tbsp balsamic glaze

Instructions

Add the yogurt, cherries, and salt to a food processor.
Pulse to combine while adding the sugar.
Drizzle the balsamic glaze while on Low.
Pour into a 24 oz re-closable container, placing plastic wrap over top of the mixture to prevent ice crystals.
Freeze overnight before serving.

Notes

The sugar is needed to allow the yogurt to be 'scooped'. Otherwise the frozen mixture will be rock hard and unable to be served easily.

I used vanilla yogurt just to enhance the flavor, plain yogurt will work just as well. Whole milk yogurt will create a creamier result.
