Step-by-Step Instructions 👩‍🍳

1. Prepare the Brambleberry Swirl: Simmer blackberries, blackcurrants, sugar, and lemon juice until thick and jammy. Let cool.
2. Make the Crisp: Toss oats, brown sugar, and melted butter. Bake until golden, then cool to keep it crunchy.
3. Cook the Yogurt Base: Boil milk, cream, sugar, and corn syrup. Thicken with cornstarch slurry, then whisk into cream cheese and stir in yogurt.
4. Churn & Assemble: Chill, churn in an ice cream maker, then layer with the berry swirl and crisp topping. Freeze before serving.

Tips for Success 💡

• Roast the berries first for a deeper, jammy flavor.
• Bake the crisp until fully golden so it stays crunchy.
• Layer, don’t mix the swirl for that stunning ribbon effect.

Serving Ideas 🍨

Serve this frozen yogurt on its own, scoop it into waffle cones, or pair it with a slice of lemon cake for an elegant plated dessert. For extra indulgence, drizzle with honey or top with fresh berries.

Frequently Asked Questions ❓

Can I use only blackberries if I don’t have blackcurrants?
Yes, blackberries alone work beautifully, though blackcurrants add extra tang and depth.

How do I keep the crisp crunchy in frozen yogurt?
Bake until golden and add in layers instead of mixing through to preserve texture.

Can I substitute regular yogurt for Greek yogurt?
Greek yogurt gives the best creaminess, but strained regular yogurt is a fine alternative.

This brambleberry crisp frozen yogurt brings together tangy, fruity, and crunchy in every bite. A true Jeni’s-inspired frozen delight—perfect for when you want something a little lighter but still indulgent. 🫐✨
