Variations of Frozen Yogurt Bites
These yogurt bites are incredibly versatile, and you can try making them with different fruits and add-ons. In fact, you can also try a combination of different fruits to keep things more interesting. These can act as a nice healthy snack to offer to your kids.
Kiwi: Kiwi has a nice sour and tart taste along with some sweet notes, and can work wonderfully with the yogurt in the recipe. Plus, it is chock full of vitamin C. Just chop it into bite-sized pieces and use them as you would use berries.
Peach: Peaches are again, an excellent fruit that can taste incredible when transformed into yogurt bites.
Mangos: Mangos and creamy yogurt are a winning combination you must definitely try out after you have experienced success with your berry version of the recipe. Better yet- make these first if you feel like it!
Strawberries: You’ve tried this with raspberries and blueberries- so why not give it a try with strawberries too?
Nuts: Chopped nuts can be a good replacement for the granola in the recipe. Choose pecans, walnuts, pistachios, and almonds. You can also throw in some raisins for extra sweetness.
Chocolate Chips: You can also add some chocolate chips into the mix if you want to. Use dark chocolate chips if you are trying to keep it on the healthier side.
Coconut: Coconut shavings can be an excellent topping option when paired with granola or just used as-is. They can lend the yogurt bites that nice textural difference that you are looking for.

Frequently Asked Questions
While it is always best to store them in the original molds themselves, you can also make them in a batch and store them in a Ziploc bag. Make sure you allow the yogurt bites to freeze for 2-3 hours at least to solidify before you remove them from their wrapper.
These are good for up to 2 weeks in the freezer. While you could store them for longer, the texture and flavor change a bit so I recommend eating within 2 weeks of making them.
Of course! You can use any yogurt you prefer for this with different flavors or types.
Tips for Making Frozen Yogurt Berry Bites
While the muffin cup is a great way to portion these into bites, you can also spread the yogurt onto a lined baking sheet and freeze it in one sheet. Then just break them up into pieces once frozen and store them in a Ziploc bag in the freezer.
For something just a bit extra, stir in some maple syrup or honey before putting the yogurt into the cups to freeze.
The fruit doesn't just have to be on top of the yogurt cup, but can also be mixed into it for extra texture.
Use plain or vanilla yogurt and stir in peanut butter or peanut butter powder for added protein. You can even use any flavored protein powder you like.
