Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup honey or maple syrup

Zest of 2 large lemons

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

2 tablespoons poppy seeds

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

Optional: fresh berries (such as blueberries or raspberries) for topping

Instructions
 

Mix the Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, add the plain Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), lemon zest, lemon juice, poppy seeds, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Using a whisk or a spatula, mix thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and all ingredients are well incorporated.

    Prepare the Molds: Take a baking sheet or tray and line it with parchment paper. Ensure the parchment is smooth and flat to avoid sticking once the yogurt discs are frozen.

      Scoop the Mixture: Utilizing a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, portion out heaping tablespoons of the yogurt mixture onto the prepared parchment-lined sheet. Space each scoop about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading. Alternatively, for perfectly shaped discs, you can use silicone molds.

        Freeze: Carefully transfer the tray to the freezer and allow the yogurt discs to freeze for a minimum of 4 hours, or until they are completely solid.

          Serve: Once frozen, gently lift the discs off the tray (or remove from molds) and serve immediately for a delightful snack. For an extra touch, top each disc with fresh berries before indulging.

            Store: If you have any leftover discs, place them in an airtight container in the freezer, stacking them with parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking. They will stay fresh for up to 2 weeks.
