How to Make Black Currant Yogurt Ice Cream

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups plain Greek yogurt, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons honey until well combined.
  2. Pour the yogurt mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze for 1 hour, or until it reaches a mushy consistency.
  3. While the yogurt mixture freezes, prepare the black currant sauce: Combine 1 cup black currants, ¼ cup orange juice, and ¼ cup granulated sugar in a small saucepan.
  4. Bring the mixture to a simmer over low heat, cover, and cook for 5 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat and let the mixture steep for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  6. Strain the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the seeds and set aside to cool completely.
  7. Once the yogurt mixture is mushy, gently fold in the cooled black currant sauce.
  8. Freeze the mixture for another hour.
  9. In a separate bowl, beat 2 large egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  10. Gently fold the egg whites into the yogurt mixture.
  11. Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 1-2 hours, or until firm. For best results, let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before scooping.
