Passion Fruit Frozen Yogurt Recipe

When Pinkberry Frozen Yogurt was introduced in Kuwait a couple of years back there used to be a huge queue in front of the shop and we literally had to wait for at least an hour to get a scoop of frozen yogurt.... and it’s a very rare sight to see Kuwaitis wait patiently to get something :P.... Now Pinkberry has opened lot of outlets all over Kuwait and the novelty has worn off and so have the queues.....We love Pinkberry Frozen Yogurt and undoubtedly a die-hard fan of Passion Fruit, I tried to recreate this at home using the recipe from David Lebovitz's  The Perfect Scoop..... I have added some Passion fruit puree to his basic Vanilla frozen Yogurt recipe and it tasted awesome and very similar to Pinkberry’s Passion Fruit Yogurt....

Passion Fruit Frozen Yogurt 

Preparation time ~ 10 mints

Ready in 3 hours

Serves - 4 to 5

Ingredients:

3 cups strained yogurt or Greek-style yogurt (I used low fat yogurt)
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla essence

6 tbsp Passion Fruit pulp, strained

1 tbsp Passion fruit pulp with seeds for decoration

Method:

• Mix together the yogurt, sugar, vanilla essence and strained passion fruit pulp. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Refrigerate 1 hour.
• If you have an ice cream maker proceed with the ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• And if you do not have an ice cream maker like me, beat the mixture at constant intervals of 1 – 1 ½ hours during the freezing process 3 or 4 times to ensure a smooth texture.

** To make strained yogurt, line a mesh strainer with a few layers of cheese cloth and add plain whole-milk yogurt into the cheesecloth. Gather the ends and fold them over the yogurt, then refrigerate for at least 6 hours.
