Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Pie

by Kelley Wilson Filed Under: Desserts, Fourth of July, Holiday, Recipes 3 Comments

I first made this strawberry frozen yogurt pie for Fathers Day. Everyone loved it and commented on how it would be great for the 4th of July. This is the perfect desert for you to make on a hot day. It's cool and creamy but surprisingly light. We love the 4th of July, going to see the fireworks, making tie dye t-shirts, and grilling BBQ. Every year we go to our local downtown park and watch fireworks with friends. We take cocktails and munchies and it's lots of fun.

Frozen Strawberry Greek Yogurt Pie - you can make it with regular yogurt too. It's so creamy and good!

One of the things I really love is that you can make this strawberry frozen yogurt pie lower in fat by using light cream cheese and light cool whip. I adapted this recipe from one I found in Taste of the South Magazine and used one of my new favorite snacks in it, Townhouse Pretzel Thins. They are awesome with humus but even better, they made a great crust on this pie!

Use your Blendtec blender to make a graham cracker and pretzel crust

Making a Graham Cracker Crust in your blender

To make my crust I used my Blendtec Blender. I love this thing so much I became an affiliate for them. Let me tell you a few reasons why.

  • The square jar allows the food to hit the sides and flip back into the blade instead of swirling and sticking.
  • With a 1725 watt 3.4 horsepower motor, this thing will blend anything, it makes great smoothies and even smooth nut butter.
  • It will purée hot soup without exploding the top off.
  • It's so easy to clean, just fill the pitcher 1/2 way with water and a few drops of dish soap and blend. The water swirls up to clean the blades and jar and you just rinse when done.
  • It has a smooth touch surface on the outside that is easy to clean, no trying to get the crud out of buttons.

This is not the cheapest blender out there, but if you buy it, you'll never need to buy another one. They come with an 8-year warranty, which means that they stand behind their product. This is an investment piece, but you won't believe how many things it will replace.

Line strawberries along the edge of a spring form pan to make a great design on the outside of a pie

I wanted to make this strawberry frozen yogurt pie a bit of a show stopper so after I made the crust I cut some strawberries in half and lined the inside of the springform pan. You have to press the strawberries a little so they create a bit of a suction around the outside of the pan. It's a really easy way to add some pizzazz to your pie.
