Sieve the berries to remove the seeds. you can make this frozen yogurt in your refrigerator freezer instead of an ice cream maker, but expect a slightly icier product.

Serves: 6

2 cups fresh or frozen unsweetened blackberries
    or 1 (16 1/2 ounce) can blackberries , drained
1/3 to 1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup skim milk
1/4 cup water
1 (8 ounce) carton plain nonfat yogurt
1 tablespoon finely shredded orange peel
1/4 cup orange juice

Thaw berries, if frozen. Meanwhile, in medium saucepan combine sugar and gelatin; stir in milk and water. Heat just till gelatin dissolves. Set aside to cool.

In a food processor bowl process berries till smooth. Press through sieve; discard seeds. Stir berry puree, yogurt, orange peel, and orange juice into gelatin mixture.

Turn into a 2-quart electric ice-cream freezer. Freeze according to manufacturer's directions. (Or, pour into a 9 x 5 x 3-inch pan. Cover; freeze about 6 hours. Break into chunks. Transfer to a chilled bowl. Beat with an electric mixer till smooth but not melted. Return to cold loaf pan. Cover; freeze about 8 hours.)
