Fruity Yoghurt Shortbread Sundae

Fruity Yoghurt Shortbread Sundae – a Delicious combination of mixed berries, lemon-flavoured Greek yoghurt and crumbled shortbread for a perfect after-dinner dessert.

Yoghurt Sundae
You’ve eaten dinner and a little while later fancy something sweet. How about this yummy Fruity Yoghurt Shortbread Sundae? It is a delicious treat and feels so decadent.

Making a dessert like this with fruit and Greek yoghurt is a much healthier option too. The addition of a crumbled shortbread just takes it to that next level of deliciousness. Perfection!!

Lemon Flavoured Greek Yoghurt
Plain Fat-Free Greek yoghurt on it’s own can be a little tart and boring. So to make it feel more of a treat for this sundae. I add some lemon for flavouring and little bit of Sukrin which is a naturally derived granulated sweetener.

You can use any sweetener you like, just make sure you check the labelling as not all sweeteners are equal. Sukrin is used like to sugar, but some sweeteners you need to use much less and of course, some do have an overpowering taste that isn’t pleasant, so it’s always worth using one you know you like.

If you don’t want to use sweeteners at all (I prefer Sukrin because it’s Erythritol based and naturally derived), feel free to use some honey or maple syrup instead. Just be aware that will add more calories overall.
