Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups (473 ml) frozen watermelon chunks
- ½ cup (120 ml) vanilla Greek yogurt
Optional Flavor Enhancers:
- Juice from ½ lime
Seasoning:
- 1 pinch flaky salt
Instructions
- Gather frozen watermelon chunks, ensuring they are thoroughly chilled and uniformly cut into bite-sized pieces for optimal blending consistency.
- Transfer watermelon chunks to a high-powered blender, adding full-fat vanilla Greek yogurt (170 grams or ) and freshly squeezed lime juice for a bright, tangy undertone.
- Pulse the ingredients initially to break down larger watermelon pieces, then blend continuously for 45-60 seconds until the mixture transforms into a silky, uniform texture with no visible chunks.
- Pause blending occasionally to scrape down the blender sides, guaranteeing complete integration of all ingredients and achieving a smooth, creamy frozen yogurt consistency.
- Once blended to a velvety finish, immediately portion the frozen yogurt into individual serving bowls or glasses, utilizing a spatula to capture every last delicious drop.
- Optionally, sprinkle a delicate pinch of flaky sea salt across the surface to enhance the natural sweetness of the watermelon and provide a subtle flavor contrast.
- Serve immediately for the most refreshing and creamy texture, or transfer to the freezer for a firmer consistency if desired.
Notes
- Chill watermelon chunks beforehand for the most refreshing and smooth texture.
- Choose ripe, sweet watermelon for natural sweetness without added sugar.
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for a creamier, richer frozen dessert consistency.
- Lime juice adds a bright, tangy kick that enhances the watermelon’s natural flavor.
- Optional sea salt topping brings out the sweetness and creates a gourmet touch.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a week.
