Greek Yoghurt Strawberry Fool - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 cups strawberries, hulled and chopped
1 tablespoon natural cane sugar
1 1/2 cups plain 2% Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest (or more)
1/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted

Preparation

Place strawberries in a medium sized bowl. Sprinkle with sugar; allow to sit, tossing occasionally, until juices are released and sugar dissolved, about 30 minutes.
Using a potato masher, gently mash strawberries until you have a pulpy puree. It is best NOT to use a blender or food processor because it will liquefy the berries.
In a large bowl stir together yoghurt, honey, almond extract and lemon zest. Gently fold in the strawberry puree.
Chill in refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Serve in dessert bowls garnished with slivered almonds.
Raspberries can be substituted or use your imagination.
