A couple of weeks ago I was at Costco and they had a special on the Cuisinart 1-1/2-Quart Ice Cream Maker (affiliate link) and before you could say Strawberry Frozen Yogurt, one of the ice cream makers was in my cart. I’m not a big ice cream eater, but for a few years now I’ve been thinking it might be fun to experiment with low-sugar frozen yogurt.

My first experiment with the new ice cream maker was not a keeper, but this time the frozen yogurt was so good that even my young nephews who were visiting gobbled it up. One of them told me quite seriously, “You can even say on your blog that it’s kid approved, and kids don’t usually like ice cream that doesn’t have sugar.”

And this EASY recipe for low-sugar frozen yogurt only has four ingredients! Check it out if you’re in need of a summer treat.

What ingredients do you need for this recipe?

(This is only a list of ingredients; please scroll down for complete printable recipe. Or if you use the JUMP TO RECIPE link at the top of the page, it will take you directly to the complete recipe.)

• fresh strawberries
• sugar-free strawberry preserves (affiliate link)
• Monkfruit Sweetener (affiliate link), or other sweetener of your choice
• plain Greek Yogurt 

What Sugar-Free preserves did we use for Strawberry Frozen Yogurt?

A recipe that has fresh strawberries can’t ever be completely sugar-free, but if you use sugar-free strawberry preserves for this low-sugar frozen yogurt, that bumps up the flavor and keeps the sugar amount pretty low. I used Polaner Sugar-Free Strawberry Preserves (affiliate link) which also has a generous amount of fiber.

What sweetener did I use for Strawberry Frozen Yogurt?

Monkfruit Sweetener (affiliate link) would be my first choice for this recipe. But use any no-calorie granulated sweetener you prefer if you don’t have Monkfruit.

How low in carbs is this low-sugar frozen yogurt?

When I calculated nutritional information for this frozen yogurt made with sugar-free strawberry preserves, fresh strawberries, Greek yogurt, and Monkfruit Sweetener I was pleasantly surprised that this frozen yogurt had only about 12 net carbs per serving!

Want low-sugar frozen yogurt without artificial sweetener?

If you don’t want to use preserves that have artificial sweetener, look for ones labeled “all fruit” or “simply fruit.” That will only slightly increase the amount of carbs.

Tips for making Strawberry Frozen Yogurt:

(This is only a summary of the steps for the recipe; please scroll down for complete printable recipe. Or if you use the JUMP TO RECIPE link at the top of the page, it will take you directly to the complete recipe.)

1. I used Polaner Sugar-Free Strawberry Preserves (affiliate link) for this recipe, but whatever brand you choose, look for one with a generous amount of fiber if you’re limiting carbs.
2. I started with 2 cups of cleaned and washed strawberries, which I pureed in the food processor.
3. Then I added 1/2 cup sugar free strawberry preserves and the same amount of Monkfruit Sweetener (affiliate link). Here’s how it looked after I had buzzed together the strawberry puree, strawberry preserves, and Monkfruit sweetener.
4. Then I added the 2 cups of Greek Yogurt and processed just enough to get it blended with the strawberry mixture.
5. Pour the mixture into the ice cream freezer and start it turning. (Stopping to take a photo at this point was NOT a good idea, and next time I won’t be doing that!)
6. I probably should have let the frozen yogurt freeze for about 5 more minutes, but here’s how it looked after 25 minutes.

3. Put strawberries into food processor fitted with a steel blade and process until they are pureed.

8. Let the yogurt freeze with the blade running for 25-30 minutes.
9. If you don’t eat all the frozen yogurt right away it can be frozen to eat later, but allow about 20 minutes at room temperature for the yogurt to soften after it comes out of the freezer.

Notes

I originally made this recipe with granulated Stevia, but now I'd use Monkfruit Sweetener (affiliate link); use the sweetener you prefer. Use reduced-fat or full-fat Greek Yogurt, whichever you prefer. 

I used a Cuisinart 1-1/2-Quart Ice Cream Maker (affiliate link) to make this frozen yogurt. You may need to adapt the recipe if you’re using a different size or make of ice cream freezer.

Low-Carb Diet / Low-Glycemic Diet / South Beach Diet Suggestions:
When it’s made with sugar-free strawberry preserves, and Monkfruit Sweetener or your favorite sweetener, this Strawberry Frozen Yogurt has about 12 net carbs in a serving. It could be a healthy treat for moderate low-carb diets, but probably not for Keto. It would also work for phase 2 or 3 of the original South Beach Diet. South Beach would prefer fat-free yogurt; other carb conscious diets might prefer full-fat yogurt.
