What do you do when it's Shavuot and someone doesn't like cheesecake? It's a serious dilemma. I know for years I did not like cheesecake and I always had a piece foisted on me. Well, here is a good alternative. Peach Frozen Yogurt... and it only takes 5 minutes. You can even use this year round and make it parve with some tofuti or other parve yogurt!
You will need a food processor and this may be served immediately without freezing. Try it with non-fat yogurt to make it even more waist-friendly. Other fruits may be easily substituted for the peaches.
Ingredients:
- 1 bag (20 ounces) frozen unsweetened peach slices
- 1 container (8 ounces) plain lowfat yogurt
- 1 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/8 teaspoon almond extract
Preparation:
- Let frozen peaches stand at room temperature 10 minutes.
- In food processor with knife blade attached, process peaches until fruit resembles finely shaved ice, occasionally scraping down side with rubber spatula.
- With processor running, add yogurt, confectioners' sugar, lemon juice, and almond extract. Process until mixture is smooth and creamy, occasionally scraping down side. Serve immediately.
- Try it with strawberries, blueberries, or your favorite combination of flavorful frozen fruits.
