Frozen Greek Yogurt Pomegranate Bites

Greek yogurt and pomegranate seeds frozen in an ice cube tray with powdered sugar. Each bite cracks slightly and the seeds inside are still crunchy. Three ingredients.

Pomegranate seeds frozen into sweetened Greek yogurt, popped out of an ice cube tray. Each bite cracks slightly when you pick it up, and the seeds inside are still crunchy even after hours in the freezer. The colour is pale pink with dark red spots scattered through every cube.

Three ingredients. You whisk yogurt and powdered sugar until creamy, fold in two cups of pomegranate seeds, pour it into the tray, and freeze. Two hours later you have a snack that looks like it came from a specialty shop. These don’t last long here.


Tips for Making Frozen Greek Yogurt Pomegranate Bites

Use a square ice cube tray

A standard square ice cube tray gives you clean, uniform bites. Silicone trays are easier to pop the bites out of once frozen.

If you use a regular hard plastic tray, run warm water over the bottom for a few seconds to release them cleanly.

Fold the seeds in gently

Two cups of pomegranate seeds is a lot. Mix them in after the yogurt and powdered sugar are already smooth.

If you stir too aggressively, the seeds burst and bleed red juice through the yogurt. Gentle folding keeps the bites cleaner.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use full-fat yogurt instead of 2%?

Yes. Full-fat Greek yogurt makes the bites creamier and slightly richer. The 2% works well for a lighter texture. Both freeze the same way.

How do I get pomegranate seeds out easily?

Cut the pomegranate in half, hold each half cut-side down over a bowl, and tap the back firmly with a wooden spoon. The seeds fall out without much mess. Do this over water to separate seeds from the white pith.

How long do these keep in the freezer?

Up to two weeks in a sealed container. After that, ice crystals start to form on the surface and the texture degrades. Transfer them from the tray to a container once fully frozen.
