Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 cups Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest grated, plus more for garnish
- 2 teaspoons honey
- Sprig of mint for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by making the blueberry jam. Place the blueberries in a small sauce pan with the water. Heat the blueberries over medium-high heat until bubbly. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the berries for another 5 minutes, or until the blueberries have all burst open and are soft. Place the blueberry jam in a bowl and let it cool completely in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Next, make the honeyed Greek yogurt. Add the Greek yogurt to a mixing bowl and add the lemon zest and honey. Mix everything together to combine. Divide the yogurt mixture between two small bowls and place in the refrigerator with the blueberry jam.
- Once the blueberry jam has cooled, scoop as much of the blueberry jam as desired on top of the yogurt and garnish with extra lemon zest and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- This makes a great meal prep recipe! Make the blueberry jam and yogurt and store in separate containers in the refrigerator until ready to use. Both will keep for about 5 days.
