Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt (I prefer full-fat for extra creaminess!)
- 2 1/2 tablespoons stevia or your preferred sweetener (honey or maple syrup would work too!)
- 2 tablespoons strawberry jam (adds a lovely pop of color and sweetness!)
- 1 container fresh blueberries (the sweeter, the better!)
How to Make It
Let’s get started on this super simple recipe!
- In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and stevia. Whisk until everything is perfectly smooth and creamy. You want to make sure there are no lumps of sweetener left.
- Take your popsicle molds and add approximately 1/2 teaspoon of strawberry jam to the bottom and spread it evenly along the sides of each mold. This adds a beautiful little swirl of color and flavor.
- Now for the fun part! Fill each mold, alternating layers of the Greek yogurt mixture and blueberries. Gently tap the molds on the counter a few times to remove any air bubbles.
- Insert your popsicle sticks and pop them into the freezer for 6-8 hours, or until completely frozen solid. I usually make them the night before so they’re ready for a hot afternoon.
Substitutions & Additions
Feel free to get creative! Instead of strawberries, try raspberry jam or even a little bit of lemon curd for a tart twist. You can also substitute other berries like raspberries, blackberries, or even chopped peaches for the blueberries.
Tips for Success
- Use good quality Greek yogurt. The thicker it is, the creamier your popsicles will be.
- Don’t overfill your popsicle molds. Leave a little room at the top for expansion as they freeze.
- For easy removal, run the molds under warm water for a few seconds before pulling out the popsicles.
How to Store It
Once your popsicles are frozen, keep them in the freezer in an airtight container or resealable bag for up to 2 weeks. They’re best enjoyed within the first week for the freshest flavor.
FAQs
- Q: Can I use a different type of sweetener? A: Absolutely! Honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar would all work well.
- Q: What if I don’t have popsicle molds? A: You can use small paper cups and insert a wooden spoon or chopstick as a handle instead.
- Q: Can I make these ahead of time? A: Yes! They freeze beautifully and are perfect for prepping for a party or a hot summer day.
