Ingredients
  

3 ripe peaches, peeled and pitted

1 cup Greek yogurt (choose plain or vanilla variety)

1 vanilla bean, split with seeds scraped out (or substitute with 1 tsp vanilla extract)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust sweetness to your preference)

A pinch of salt

1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Optional: Chopped fresh mint for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peaches: Carefully peel and pit the peaches. Slice them into thin wedges or bite-sized pieces, ensuring they are uniform for even freezing. Set aside on a plate.

    Make the Yogurt Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, scraped vanilla bean seeds (or vanilla extract), honey or maple syrup, pinch of salt, and lemon juice. Stir vigorously until the mixture is smooth and all ingredients are well blended.

      Assemble the Bites: Take each peach slice and dip it into the yogurt mixture, making sure it is entirely coated. Gently shake off any excess yogurt before placing it on the baking sheet.

        Freeze the Bites: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the coated peach slices in a single layer, ensuring they are not overlapping. Place the baking sheet in the freezer and allow the peach bites to freeze for at least 3 hours, or until they become firm.

          Serve: Once frozen, transfer the Peach Bites to an airtight container for long-term storage. To serve, remove the desired number of bites from the freezer, and for an added touch, sprinkle with chopped fresh mint just before enjoying.

            Enjoy: Relish these delightful Frozen Vanilla Bean Peach Bites as a refreshing snack or a delightful dessert option any time of the day!
