Today's recipe is a clean eating semifreddo recipe made with yoghurt, fresh strawberries and coconut milk. This is much lighter than the traditional version, yet still tasty, refreshing and satisfying.
I am sure all of you have seen the latest recipe advert in Tesco showing the gorgeous and lush looking raspberry semifreddo. A lovely friend of mine challenged me to make a clean version of it, so here I am. You can get the original recipe here. It calls for low-fat natural yoghurt, condensed milk, raspberries and maple syrup.
My clean version is a bit different. I used Greek yoghurt or soya (for the vegan-friendly option), strawberries, a few spoons of brown rice syrup , vanilla extract and full fat coconut milk.
I had this taste tested by my loved ones and they all approved it, including a fussy teenager and a little 7 year old diva who equally both loved it.
This clean eating semifreddo recipe is a beautiful summer treat, it's refreshing, yet light and full of flavours. I personally don't like it straight from the freezer, I let thaw for 10 minutes and then enjoy with with a few drops of lime, whereas my daughter Sofia likes it with generous drizzle of melted raw chocolate. I think this could be a brilliant dessert for a barbeque party or work great as a healthy summer birthday cake! Whatever the excuse, it will always taste great.
Don't worry if you don't have strawberries or raspberries, you could use blueberries, mango or even kiwi!
