Pineapple yogurt can be made with real or artificial flavors and can have a chunky or smooth texture. It is available in single packs or bulk and can be low-fat, fat-free, or regular. Homemade pineapple yogurt can be made with pineapple chunks or juice and sweeteners. Pineapple Upside Down Cake flavor and frozen pineapple yogurt are also available. Yogurt can be flavored with any fruit or food grade flavors.
Pineapple yogurt is yogurt that uses real or artificial flavors to make the dairy product look like pineapple. It can include pineapple chunks for a chunky texture or have a smooth texture. While not the most common flavor, pineapple yogurt is available through a variety of manufacturers.
Store-bought pineapple yogurt can be individually wrapped or bulk. Most consumers buy yogurt in single packs, which typically contain 4 to 6 ounces. There are some larger containers available, 32- or 48-ounces, but most bulk yogurts are plain or vanilla flavored. Store-bought pineapple yogurt can be low-fat, low-fat, or regular.
Homemade pineapple yogurt is easy to make. Store-bought plain yogurt is mixed with pineapple chunks or chopped pineapple. If a smooth texture is desired, pineapple juice or flavoring, real or artificial, is added to the yogurt. Too much pineapple juice can make the texture of the yogurt too thick, so sometimes a condensed flavoring is the best choice. For a sweeter flavor, vanilla yogurt can be substituted, or sugar, honey, or any type of syrup can be added to the mix.
There are a few variations on pineapple yogurt that mimic a dessert that primarily uses pineapple. Pineapple Upside Down Cake is one such flavor. These yogurts contain multiple flavors, usually a mix of artificial and real.
Another type of pineapple yogurt is frozen yogurt. It is similar to ice cream in texture but usually has fewer calories and grams of fat associated with each serving. Pineapple frozen yogurt can be homemade or store-bought.
Homemade frozen yogurt requires an ice cream maker to properly chill the ingredients. After mixing the yogurt with whole or chopped pineapple or pineapple flavoring, the mixture is poured into the ice cream maker bucket. The bucket is surrounded by ice and swirled for 20 to 30 minutes, evenly chilling the mixture to a stiff, but not hard, consistency.
Using these two methods, yogurt can be flavored with virtually any type of fruit. Berry yoghurts are especially popular as the texture of the berries makes for a nice combination with the yoghurt. Berries are often naturally sweet, so additional sweeteners are usually not needed.
Artificial or condensed actual flavors can also be used to create virtually any type of yogurt. While most commonly used in candy making, a variety of food grade flavors are available and can be used to flavor yogurt. Not only fruit flavors are available, but also mint, chocolate, vanilla, root beer, cola, caramel, and many more.
