Ingredients

Exact ingredient quantities can be found at the bottom of this page.

To make these low calorie yogurt jam bites you will need:

• Frozen berries – Frozen berries work best for this recipe. You can also opt for fresh berries but it may take a little longer to get them to set. As for the type of berries, feel free to use any berry or mix of berries you like! I used a mix of blueberries, raspberries and blackberries.
• 0 calorie brown sugar or stevia – Any 0 calorie sweetener will work for this recipe. A little goes a long way in adding some sweetness to the berries!
• Lemon juice – Lemon juice and berries go together so perfectly. It adds a nice tangy flavor to balance out the sweetness of the berries.
• Yogurt – The yogurt will coat the berries. I opted for low fat yogurt as it is lower in calories than full-fat yogurt but it still has a little fat so it can add some creaminess and texture! Opt for vegan yogurt for a vegan alternative.
• Maple syrup – You can opt for a 0 calorie syrup here but a small amount of syrup is needed to sweeten the yogurt. You can also try a flavored yogurt and skip this step.
• Chocolate – This completely optional but I love to drizzle a little chocolate over the jam bites!

How to make low calorie yogurt jam bites

1. In a medium bowl, mash together the berries, lemon juice and stevia until there are no more lumps.
2. Spoon 1 heaped tablespoon of the berry mixture onto a tray lined with parchment paper. Repeat until you have 4 circles.
3. Freeze until solid (about 2 hours).
4. In a small bowl, mix the maple syrup and yogurt until well combined. Dip each berry jam bite into the yogurt until fully coated.
5. Top with melted chocolate and some berries and freeze again until solid (about 1 hour). Enjoy!

Storage

These low calorie yogurt jam bites can be made ahead and stored in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months. You can either make the jam and freeze them until you’re ready to dip into the yogurt or you can dip them in the yogurt and store them that way!
