Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust based on taste)

Zest of 2 large lemons

1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice

2 tablespoons poppy seeds

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

A pinch of sea salt

Fresh blueberries or raspberries for garnish (optional)

Paper muffin liners

Instructions
 

Prepare the Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), lemon zest, lemon juice, poppy seeds, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Use a whisk or spatula to mix thoroughly until the mixture is homogenous and smooth.

    Taste Test: Before proceeding, take a small spoonful of the mixture to taste. If you desire a sweeter flavor, gradually incorporate additional honey or maple syrup until you reach your preferred sweetness level.

      Prepare Muffin Liners: Line a standard muffin tin with paper muffin liners, ensuring they are securely placed. This will help in easily removing the yogurt cups once they are frozen.

        Fill the Cups: Using a spoon or a small ice cream scoop, fill each muffin liner with the lemon poppyseed yogurt mixture, making sure to fill them about 3/4 full. This allows ample space for the yogurt to expand as it freezes.

          Freeze: Carefully position the muffin tin in the freezer. Allow the yogurt cups to freeze undisturbed for a minimum of 4 hours, or until they are completely solid.

            Serve: To enjoy your frozen treats, gently peel away the paper liners from each cup. If the cups are too firm to remove, let them sit at room temperature for a couple of minutes to loosen.

              Garnish: Arrange the frozen yogurt cups on a serving plate or in a decorative container. For an added touch, top each cup with a handful of fresh blueberries or raspberries, adding both flavor and a burst of color.

                Enjoy: Serve these delightful frozen yogurt cups immediately as a refreshing snack on a warm day. If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to two weeks for a quick and satisfying treat.
