Ingredients
  

2 cups ripe peaches, peeled and diced

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

1/2 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust for sweetness)

1/4 cup fresh ginger, grated (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon lemon juice

2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peaches: If you haven’t already, peel and dice the ripe peaches. Reserve a handful of small pieces for topping later.

    Blend the Mixture: In a blender or food processor, combine the diced peaches, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, grated ginger, vanilla extract, salt, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth and creamy.

      Taste and Adjust: Before pouring the mixture into the dish, taste it. Adjust sweetness or ginger spiciness as needed based on your personal preference.

        Fill the Pan: Line an 8x8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper for easy removal. Pour the peach-yogurt mixture into the lined dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

          Add Toppings: Sprinkle the reserved diced peach pieces evenly over the top of the mixture. If desired, also sprinkle a little extra grated ginger for an added kick.

            Freeze: Cover the dish with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the freezer. Freeze for at least 4-6 hours or until firm.

              Slice and Serve: Once frozen solid, let the dish sit at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes to soften slightly, then lift the squares out using the parchment paper. Slice into squares.

                Garnish: Optionally, garnish each square with chopped fresh mint before serving.

                  Enjoy: Serve your delicious Frozen Yogurt Peach Ginger Squares on a hot day or as a refreshing dessert!
