Yogurt Granita Recipes

Steps:

• For the Granita: In a shallow 8-inch square pan, stir the applesauce and lemon juice together and spread the mixture evenly in the pan. Place the pan in the freezer for at least 1 hour.
• For the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the yogurt, maple syrup, and cinnamon. Chill the sauce until ready to serve.
• Remove the granita from the freezer. With a fork, scrape the surface of the granita to gently fluff it up. Serve immediately, in dessert glasses or dishes, drizzled with yogurt sauce.

Steps:

• 1 In a large bowl, smash the strawberries into the yogurt, stirring to combine.
• 2 Pour the mixture into a shallow pan (a metal baking pan works) and place it in the freezer, uncovered, for 1 hour.
• 3 Remove the pan from the freezer and stir the yogurt well, breaking up any clusters of ice crystals that have formed.
• 4 Return it to the freezer. Continue stirring every half hour, breaking up new clusters as they form, until the granita is completely frozen but scoopable, about 2 more hours.
• 5 Scoop and serve, garnished with fresh berries, if desired. (Store any leftovers in the freezer in a covered container or resealable plastic bag.)
