Baked Yogurt

Ingredients

(Tip: You'll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

2 cups Greek yogurt

4 large eggs

¼ cup maple syrup or honey

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3 tablespoons cornstarch

1 ½ cups berries, divided

Directions

I preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.

I whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a large bowl until the mixture is smooth.

I add the cornstarch and whisk again until it is completely incorporated.

I gently fold in 1 cup of the berries.

I pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.

I scatter the remaining ½ cup of berries over the top.

I bake for about 45 minutes, or until the center is fully set and no longer jiggles.

I let the baked yogurt cool almost completely before slicing it into 9 squares and serving.

Variations

I like changing this recipe depending on what I have available. Mixed berries, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, or blackberries all work beautifully. Sometimes I add a little lemon zest for a fresh citrus flavor or a pinch of cinnamon for extra warmth. I also enjoy stirring in mini chocolate chips for a dessert-inspired version or topping each serving with chopped nuts or granola for added crunch.

Storage/Reheating

I store the baked yogurt in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. It tastes delicious straight from the fridge, but I can also let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving. If I prefer it warm, I gently reheat individual portions in the microwave for about 15 to 20 seconds, taking care not to overheat it so the texture stays creamy. I can also freeze individual slices for up to 2 months and thaw them overnight in the refrigerator before enjoying.

FAQs

Can I use regular yogurt instead of Greek yogurt?

I prefer using Greek yogurt because its thicker consistency creates the creamy, custard-like texture. Regular yogurt contains more moisture, so the final result may be softer.

Can I use frozen berries?

Yes, I can use frozen berries without thawing them first. They may release a little extra moisture, but the baked yogurt will still turn out delicious.

Can I replace maple syrup with honey?

Yes, I can use either maple syrup or honey based on my preference. Both provide natural sweetness and work equally well in this recipe.

How do I know when the baked yogurt is done?

I look for a center that is fully set with only the slightest movement when I gently shake the baking dish. It will continue to firm up as it cools.

Can I make this recipe ahead of time?

Absolutely. I often prepare it a day in advance and refrigerate it overnight. It makes a convenient grab-and-go breakfast or healthy snack throughout the week.

Conclusion

I enjoy this baked yogurt because it combines simple ingredients into a creamy, satisfying dish that works for breakfast, dessert, or an afternoon snack. The fresh berries add natural sweetness and vibrant flavor, while the Greek yogurt provides plenty of protein. Whether I serve it warm from the oven or chilled from the refrigerator, this recipe is an easy and delicious addition to my weekly meal prep.
