1 servings

Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
½cupNonfat plain yogurt; drained for 8 hrs *
1Bartlett pears; peeled and diced
2teaspoonsMaple syrup
¼teaspoonAlmond extract
¼cupSkim milk

Directions

* For a thinner beverage, you don't have to drain the yogurt.

Place the pear, almond extract, and maple syrup in a double boiler. Cover and cook for 10 minutes, or until the pear is very tender. (I would think you could cook the mixture in the microwave, too.) Refrigerate until well chilled.

Place the milk, the pear mixture, and the drained yogurt in a blender.

Process until smooth.
