Ingredients
Fruit and Nuts
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Dairy
- 3/4 cup 2-5% vanilla Greek yogurt
Chocolate Coating
- 1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil
Topping
- A sprinkle of flaky salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Mixture: In a medium bowl, gently combine the fresh blueberries, chopped walnuts, and vanilla Greek yogurt until evenly mixed, taking care not to mash the blueberries.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
- Combine with Chocolate: Fold the blueberry, walnut, and yogurt mixture into the melted chocolate until everything is evenly coated.
- Form Clusters: Spoon the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet in small cluster-sized dollops.
- Top with Salt: Lightly sprinkle flaky salt over each cluster to enhance the flavor balance.
- Freeze: Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 1 hour or until the clusters are firm and set.
- Serve: Once frozen solid, remove the clusters from the baking sheet. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer and enjoy chilled.
Notes
- Use 2-5% fat Greek yogurt for a balance of creaminess and health benefits.
- Dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa content works best for a rich flavor and higher antioxidant content.
- You can substitute walnuts with pecans or almonds if preferred.
- The clusters can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
- To prevent sticking, use parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
