Baked Yogurt is a deliciously creamy and healthy custard-like dish made with Greek yogurt, eggs, and sweetened with natural maple syrup or honey. This gluten-free breakfast or snack option combines the rich flavors of vanilla and berries, offering a nutritious treat that’s high in protein and easy to prepare in under two hours.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups Greek yogurt
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 cups berries, divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and line an 8×8 inch square baking dish with parchment paper. Set aside to ensure easy removal of the baked yogurt later.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, eggs, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and uniform in texture.
  3. Add Cornstarch: Sprinkle in the cornstarch and whisk again until the mixture is well combined and free of lumps to help thicken the custard as it bakes.
  4. Incorporate Berries: Gently fold in 1 cup of the berries to the yogurt mixture, stirring just enough to distribute them evenly without breaking them up.
  5. Pour and Top: Pour the yogurt mixture into the lined baking dish. Evenly sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of berries on top for a fresh, fruity finish.
  6. Bake: Place the dish in the oven and bake for 45 minutes or until the center of the yogurt custard is set and no longer jiggly to the touch.
  7. Cool: Remove from the oven and let the baked yogurt cool nearly completely to firm up further and enhance the flavors.
  8. Serve: Cut into 9 slices and serve immediately. Optionally, drizzle with more maple syrup for additional sweetness if desired.

Notes

  • Store: Refrigerate baked yogurt in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
  • Freeze: Freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature for a few hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
  • This recipe is versatile and can be served warm or cold.
  • Use fresh or frozen berries depending on availability.
