VANILLA FROZEN YOGURT

Steps:

• Stir the yogurt, sugar, and vanilla extract together until the sugar has dissolved. Cover. Refrigerate 1 hour.
• Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's directions until it reaches "soft-serve" consistency. Transfer to a one- or two-quart plastic container with a lid; cover surface with plastic wrap and seal. For best results, frozen yogurt should ripen in the freezer for at least 2 hours or overnight.

SKINNY VANILLA BEAN FROZEN YOGURT

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine the milk, agave nectar, vanilla bean, and vanilla seeds. Bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat and let the vanilla bean steep for 1/2 hour in the milk mixture. Remove the vanilla bean from the cooled milk and reserve. In a food processor, blend together the milk mixture, yogurt, dry milk, xanthan gum, and salt until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Pour into a container, replace the vanilla bean, and allow it to infuse the mixture for several hours or overnight. When ready to freeze, discard the vanilla bean and freeze in the ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's directions.
