Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1 cup canned pumpkin puree

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust based on your sweetness preference)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

Pinch of salt

Optional: chopped nuts or granola for topping

Instructions
 

Mix the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt and canned pumpkin puree. Using a whisk or spatula, stir the mixture until it becomes smooth and well-blended, ensuring there are no lumps.

    Sweeten It Up: Pour in the honey or maple syrup, followed by the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and a pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly with a spatula or spoon until all ingredients are completely incorporated and the mixture is evenly flavored.

      Taste Test: Take a small spoonful to taste the mixture. If you find it needs more sweetness, stir in a little extra honey or maple syrup to achieve your desired flavor.

        Fill the Trays: Carefully pour the pumpkin-yogurt mixture into ice cube trays or silicone molds. Fill each compartment about three-quarters full, allowing space for the mixture to expand as it freezes.

          Smooth the Surface: To create a tidy appearance, use a spatula or the back of a spoon to gently smooth the tops of the filled compartments.

            Freeze: Place the filled trays in the freezer and allow to freeze for at least 4 hours, or until the yogurt cubes are completely solid.

              Pop and Store: After freezing, gently bend the trays or squeeze the silicone molds to release the yogurt cubes. Transfer the cubes to an airtight container or freezer bag for easy access later.

                Serve: Enjoy these refreshing pumpkin spice yogurt cubes as a cool snack on their own, or blend them into smoothies for a delicious twist. For an added crunch, sprinkle some chopped nuts or granola on top before serving!
