No-bake recipes are super simple and nice on a summer evening, especially this Honey-Vanilla Frozen Yogurt and Grape Pie. There’s no fancy kitchen equipment needed, just a plastic sealable bag, rolling pin and pan.
Good quality yogurt is the most important ingredient in this recipe. I’m a true yogurt lover and I’ve probably tasted almost everything that’s out there. Bellwether Farms makes great yogurt the old fashioned way — good milk from good cows and it’s European style – no additives just creamy goodness. I love the vanilla bean flavor, it’s not overly sweet and it has flecks of vanilla bean throughout. This is not a sponsored post, but I do like to let people know about products I use.
The crust is made with cinnamon graham crackers (Trader Joe’s), another favorite ingredient, a little butter and a pinch of salt. The combination of creamy yogurt and graham crackers with flavors of vanilla, honey and cinnamon just makes this dessert perfect. The frozen grapes are champagne grapes, – small, seedless and sweet. After they’re frozen, they look like they are dusted with snow. I like to serve this after dinner as a light dessert, but you could eat it for breakfast as well.
Ingredients
10 cinnamon graham crackers, or 1 sleeve graham crackers + 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
4 tablespoons butter, melted
pinch of salt
1 pint vanilla whole milk yogurt
