Step-by-Step Instructions for Lemon Frozen Yogurt
  1. In a large measuring cup, combine 2 cups of vanilla Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice, and the zest of one lemon. Whisk until fully blended.
  2. Add your preferred sweetener to the yogurt mixture—use about 1/4 cup and mix well until dissolved.
  3. Pour the yogurt mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions for about 20-25 minutes.
  4. If using no ice cream maker, pour the mixture into ice cube trays and freeze until solid, typically about 4-6 hours.
  5. Transfer frozen yogurt cubes to a food processor and blend until smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary.
  6. Scoop the creamy Lemon Frozen Yogurt into bowls or cups and serve immediately or freeze for a firmer texture.
