Today I’m sharing the ultimate easy frozen dessert. It’s a frozen yogurt pie recipe.
Did you know that frozen yogurt is really just yogurt that’s been frozen? To make frozen yogurt, put it in a covered freezer-safe container in the freezer and then stir it every now and then until frozen.
And you can also make frozen treats by combining yogurt with other ingredients in different ways.
For instance, you can make super simple frozen yogurt sandwiches by glopping some yogurt onto a cookie, topping it with another cookie and then freezing it.
It’s such a healthy frozen snack for the kids (and for moms too!).
Or make today’s unique frozen yogurt pie recipe by mixing yogurt with cherries and putting it into a pie shell.

Frozen Yogurt Pie Recipe
- Prep Time: 10
- Total Time: 2 hours 10 minutes
- Yield: 8 1x
DESCRIPTION
This is a delicious and easy frozen yogurt pie recipe. It’s a mixture of yogurt and fresh cherries frozen into a pie crust. Just mix, freeze, cut, and serve!
Ingredients
- 1–9” homemade baked pie crust or a bought pie crust baked according to package directions
- 1/2 lb fresh cherries, pitted, stems removed, and halved
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 and 1/2 cups low-fat vanilla yogurt
Instructions
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine half of the cherries with the honey, cinnamon, and yogurt. Glop the yogurt mixture into the baked pie shell.
- Place the remaining cherries on top of the yogurt in a non-overlapping layer (these cherries won’t sink into the mixture and so will stay vibrant and pretty on the top of the pie).
- Put the pie in the freezer until frozen solid, at least 2 hours. If not serving immediately, cover the pie tightly with plastic wrap and keep it in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
- Remove the pie from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes, just to let it soften slightly. Cut into 8 wedges and serve.

This looks so good. My daughter really loves cherries so I will make this one for her.
Christine Pittman says
Wonderful, Mary!
Catherine says
Hi Christine,
Immediately after taking this out of the freezer, will it be rock hard? I’m not sure 5-10 minutes of leaving it in room temperature will be enough to soften it to an edible consistency. Thanks!
