Tip from Simone
These popsicles are a great way to add a little more fruit to your day. Don’t have raspberries? You can easily swap them for strawberries, blueberries, blackberries or even mango. Once you’ve mastered the basic recipe, the flavor combinations are endless.
Recipe ingredients
You’ll find the exact quantities in the recipe card below, but these are the ingredients you’ll need:
- Vanilla yogurt – Greek yogurt also works well if you like an extra creamy popsicle. You can sweeten plain yogurt yourself with a little honey or maple syrup.
- Fresh raspberries – Frozen raspberries work just as well. Let them thaw first if you want to create a pretty swirl.
- Powdered sugar – Optional, depending on how sweet your yogurt is. You can also use honey or simply leave it out if you prefer a less sweet popsicle.
How to make raspberry yogurt popsicles
Making these homemade popsicles couldn’t be easier.
Start by stirring the powdered sugar through the vanilla yogurt. Taste the mixture first, as many vanilla yogurts are already sweet enough.
Spoon the yogurt into your popsicle moulds, leaving a little space at the top.
Mash or blend the raspberries until smooth. Add the raspberry puree to the yogurt and use a skewer or knife to gently swirl it through the yogurt. This creates a lovely marbled effect.
Insert the sticks and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until completely firm.
To remove the popsicles from the moulds, briefly run the outside under warm water for a few seconds.
Storage
These raspberry yogurt popsicles keep well in the freezer for up to 3 months. Once frozen, you can remove them from the moulds and store them in a freezer bag or airtight container with a sheet of baking paper between them to prevent sticking.
