Ingredients

For the Honeydew Yogurt Base

3 cups ripe honeydew melon cubed, seeds removed
1 cup plain Greek yogurt 2% or non-fat
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup adjust to taste
1 teaspoon lime juice freshly squeezed
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method

Instructions

Prepare the honeydew: Place the cubed honeydew melon in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until completely solid.
Prepare the yogurt base: In a high-powered blender or food processor, combine the frozen honeydew, Greek yogurt, honey/maple syrup, lime juice, and vanilla extract.
Blend until completely smooth. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides several times. The consistency should resemble a very thick soft-serve ice cream.
Portion the mix: Line a standard 24-cavity mini muffin tin with small paper or silicone liners. Spoon the honeydew mixture evenly into each liner, filling them almost to the top.
Freeze until solid: Place the muffin tin in the freezer and allow the bites to firm up completely, which usually takes 4-6 hours, or preferably overnight.
Serve immediately from the freezer. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

For an extra treat, dip the frozen bottoms into melted white chocolate mixed with a tiny bit of green food coloring before refreezing. Ensure your Greek yogurt is very thick to avoid a watery final product.
