Ingredients
  

2 cups frozen cherries, thawed and pitted

1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup for a vegan alternative)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted (or coconut oil for a vegan option)

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon salt

Whipped cream for serving (optional)

Fresh cherries for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cherry Filling: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the thawed and pitted cherries with the honey (or maple syrup). Gently stir and let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the cherries to release some juices.

    Make the Yogurt Mixture: In another bowl, combine the vanilla Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Use a whisk to mix until the ingredients are smooth and well integrated.

      Prepare the Crust: In a separate bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter (or coconut oil), ground cinnamon, and salt. Mix well until the mixture resembles wet sand and can hold its shape when pressed.

        Assemble the Bombs:

          - Mold the Crust: Lightly grease a muffin tin (a silicone one works best for easy removal). Take a handful of the crust mixture and press it firmly into the bottom and up the sides of each muffin cup, leaving a small space at the top for the yogurt and cherry filling.

            - Layer Filling: Carefully spoon a generous layer of the cherry mixture into each crust. Next, add a generous dollop of the yogurt mixture on top, smoothing it out to cover the cherries completely.

              Freeze: Place the assembled muffin tin in the freezer. Allow the bombs to freeze for at least 4 hours, or until they are solid and firm to the touch.

                Serve: Once the Frozen Yogurt Cherry Pie Bombs are fully set, gently pop them out of the muffin tin. For a delightful touch, serve each bomb with a dollop of whipped cream if desired, and garnish with fresh cherries for an extra pop of color.

                  Enjoy: These delightful treats are perfect for a refreshing dessert on a warm day, offering a wonderful combination of tart cherries and creamy yogurt!
