Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by warming 1/2 cup of honey in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in 2 tablespoons of dried culinary lavender and let the mixture steep for about 15 minutes. Strain the lavender buds using a fine sieve, discarding them to leave a fragrant honey.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of Greek yogurt, the strained lavender honey, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, the juice of half a lemon, and a pinch of fine sea salt until smooth.
  3. Gently whisk in 1 cup of cold heavy cream to the yogurt mixture until thick and velvety.
  4. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe loaf pan, smoothing the top, cover tightly, and freeze for 4 to 6 hours, stirring after the first hour.
  5. Before serving, let the pan sit at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes for easy scooping. Garnish with honey or lavender if desired.
