Ingredients

  • 2 sachets Simply Desserts unflavored gelatin alternative
  • 1¼ cups cold milk 300 mL
  • 2½ cups plain yogurt 625 mL
  • ½ cup honey 125 mL
  • ¼ cup lemon juice 60 mL
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract 5 mL
  • ½ tsp grated lemon peel 2 mL
  • Fresh or canned fruit for garnish

Instructions

  • Pour 1¼ cups cold milk into a medium saucepan. Sprinkle 2 sachets of gelatin alternative over the surface and let stand 1 minute to bloom.

Dissolve the gelatin using one of these methods

  • Stovetop: Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until completely dissolved (1-2 minutes).
  • Microwave: Transfer to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave 30–60 seconds, stirring halfway, until dissolved.
  • Let cool 3 minutes before the next step.
  • In a blender, combine yogurt, honey, lemon juice, vanilla, and lemon peel. With the blender running on low, slowly stream in the warm milk mixture and blend until smooth.
  • Divide the mixture evenly among six 6 oz (175 mL) custard cups. Refrigerate until set, about 3 hours.
  • To serve, either spoon directly from the cups, or unmold: dip the bottom of each cup briefly in warm water, run a knife around the edge, and invert onto a plate. Garnish with fresh or canned fruit.
