Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Place the Greek yogurt, fresh or frozen fruits, dried fruits, nuts, and optional sweeteners like honey or maple syrup into separate small bowls to make assembling easier.
- Set Up Molds: Line a muffin tin with paper liners or prepare ice cube molds on a baking sheet to catch any spills and make clean-up easier.
- Flavor the Yogurt: If desired, stir honey or maple syrup into the Greek yogurt to add a touch of sweetness before assembling your bites.
- Assemble Yogurt Bites: Guide children or yourself to use the flavored yogurt as a base and “glue” to hold together layers of fruits, nuts, and any fun add-ins in each muffin cup or ice cube mold.
- Freeze: Place the baking sheet with the filled molds in the freezer and freeze for 1 to 2 hours until the yogurt bites are solid.
- Serve: Remove the yogurt bites from the molds and allow them to sit at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes to soften slightly, making them easier to eat. For younger children, cut into small bite-sized pieces.
Notes

- Customize with your favorite fruits, nuts, or sweet toppings.
