During my university days, my friends and I were on a mission to discover the best froyo spot. Sad to say, it’s been years since I went to one, but that’s only because it’s one of the easiest desserts to make at home.
For this recipe, I kept it simple so the natural tanginess of the yogurt shines. When paired with sweetener and vanilla, you’re left with a sweet, creamy yogurt that could rival the best yogurt shops in town!

Why I love this recipe
- Made with only 3 ingredients. I looked up the ingredients to plain frozen yogurt at my local froyo spot, and let me tell you, the ingredient list was a mile long!
- So easy to customize. The base recipe is simple by design, so you can add whatever extracts or toppings you desire.
- You don’t need an ice cream maker. While I prefer using one as it yields a creamier texture, you can just as easily make it in your Ninja Creami or in a blender.
- Very healthy. Each serving packs 8 grams of protein for under 100 calories and 3 grams of net carbs.
Ingredients needed
- Greek yogurt. I tested fat-free and traditional Greek yogurt, and both turned out delicious. Keep in mind that non-fat varieties tend to contain a few extra carbs.
- Granulated sweetener. I recommend using allulose as it dissolves easily without becoming grainy. Monk fruit or erythritol can also be used, but make sure the sweetener is VERY well mixed in.
- Vanilla extract. Optional, but I recommend it if you’d prefer a light vanilla flavor.
How to make sugar-free frozen yogurt
I’ve included step-by-step photos below to make this recipe easy to follow at home. For the full printable recipe instructions and ingredient quantities, scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of this post.
Step 1- Combine ingredients. Add all the ingredients to a mixing bowl and whisk until the sweetener dissolves. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for an hour.
Step 2- Mix. Pour the yogurt mixture into the ice cream maker and churn until it reaches a soft served consistency.
Step 3- Serve. Serve chilled or freeze (covered) until you’re ready to serve.
Can I make this without an ice cream maker?
As I mentioned earlier, you can make this recipe without needing an ice cream maker. Here’s how:
Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. Pour it into several small containers (ice cube trays work great) and freeze until solid. Place the frozen mixture back into the blender and blend with a splash of milk until it reaches your desired consistency.
Arman’s recipe tips
- Use a flavored yogurt. When I want a more pronounced vanilla flavor, I’ll use vanilla-flavored yogurt. Just watch the carb content as some flavored yogurt contains added sugar.
- Want to use a Ninja Creami? Pour the yogurt base into Creami pint containers, freeze for at least 4 hours, then blend on the ‘Frozen Yogurt’ or ‘Light Ice Cream’ setting. If needed, add a splash of milk and re-blend.
- Make it dairy-free. Use fermented coconut yogurt. Keep in mind it’ll have a fairly pronounced coconut flavor.
Variations
- Chocolate. Add 2-3 tablespoons of cocoa powder and fold through 1/2 cup sugar free chocolate chips.
- Strawberry. Use a strawberry-flavored Greek yogurt OR add 1/2 cup of frozen strawberries.
- Blueberry. Use a blueberry-flavored Greek yogurt OR Add 1/2 cup of frozen blueberries.
- Mango. Add 1/4 cup of frozen and chopped mango.
- Peach. Add 1/2 cup of frozen peach slices.
Storage instructions
To store: Frozen yogurt should be stored in a freezer-friendly or plastic container with the lid on. Frozen yogurt will keep well for up to 2 months. Let it thaw for 15 minutes before serving.
Frequently asked questions
Believe it or not, frozen yogurt often contains more carbs. This is due to the lower fat content, which is replaced with sugar. If you’re watching your carbs, look for low-carb froyo, or better yet, make your own!

Great recipe! I used homemade, low carb yogurt. The taste and texture are perfect. Sometimes the store bought, low carb ice cream is too sweet and expensive. This recipe is so easy that I’ll make it often. Thanks!
I never would have thought about freezing yogurt, but using your recipe as a base, I’m loving it. I did add some HWC just to make it smoother, and one smashed banana pureed with some frozen blueberries. I also didn’t have allulose so I used powdered erythitol. I also added a bit of skinny syrup just because I had it and didn’t know what else to use it in. This turned out to be a delicious way to use up some yogurt I had. Thanks so much for your input.
If you use flavored yogurt do you have to use the sugar?
I haven’t tried!
Just made this, way better than anything in the store. 😊 Thanks
Aw I love this! 🙂
I wd like to use a banana to compensate for some of the Allulose. Do you think this may work, and if so suggestions?
No idea, I haven’t tried. Feel free to experiment and see.
Try coconut yogurt
I was wondering the same! I use full fat coconut milk as my ice cream base currently but curious if there is a lower calorie option. (The fill fat coconut milk works great by the way!)
I haven’t tried, feel free to experiment and see
I cannot have dairy, could not find anything for a sub anywhere. What can I sub for the Greek yogurt?
I haven’t tried any other alternatives. You can experiment with a dairy free yogurt.
Just about to get my first ice cream maker and your frozen yogurt recipe caught my eye. Question please: I see 8 servings but how much is that in total volume once mixed? I bought a 1.5 quart machine and 1.6 quart freezer containers. Also what do you consider, in ounces or grams, to be a single serving?
We just divide it by 8, we don’t weigh each portion 🙂
