Skip the store-bought Gogurt tubes and make your own! Homemade Gogurt is one of the easiest, healthiest snacks you can prepare and only takes two simple ingredients. Plain yogurt is blended up with mixed berries and then filled in tubes for a cheaper and healthier version of the store-bought yogurt tubes.
Grab a homemade Gogurt, a Veggie Wrap, and homemade granola bar, for a healthy-balanced kid-friendly lunch perfect for a packed school lunch or lunch at home.
My kids always ask to take a Gogurt in their school lunches.
But not store-bought Gogurts, which are often filled with excess sugar and sometimes even food coloring.
However, you only need 2 simple ingredients and a blender to make your own tubes of homemade Gogurts.
The Ingredients
- Plain Yogurt: You can opt to use dairy-free or organic yogurt. You can even use flavored yogurt, as long as you keep in mind that it will add to the overall sugar content of your homemade yogurt tubes.
- Fruit: I recommend berries for gogurts for the best flavor. Fruit can be fresh or frozen, but be sure to defrost fruit BEFORE making Gogurts, as this will make the filling of yogurt tubes much easier and the yogurt much smoother when blended.
Options for Homemade Gogurt
The base recipe is to use 2 cups plain yogurt and add in 1 cup of the following fruits.
- peaches
- strawberries
- blueberries
- blackberries
- raspberries
- cherries
- avocado
Storing
I highly recommend freezing Homemade Gogurts. They will last up to 3 months in the freezer. SimplypPop one in a lunch box in the morning with an ice pack and by lunch, they are defrosted and ready to eat.
Alternatively, refrigerate for up to 4 days.

Thanks for sharing. My 11 year old is taking on the challenge to make her own gogurts this year. I rarely buy them since they’re so fake and sugary so she decided to make them herself.
Kristen Chidsey
Hi Allison! I LOVE this so much! Tell your 11 year old, my 11 year old says she hopes she loves these too (and that they are easy to make!)
Ellen Giller
Such a great idea. I just ordered yogurt tubes and Spiderman stickers to decorate with as my son always want a yogurt "theme." I can't wait to use this and skip the sugary/overpriced grocery store version.

I love that you are personalizing your yogurt tubes 🙂 What a lucky boy you have! Enjoy!
