Easy recipe for strawberry yogurt popsicles

Remember to take them out of the freezer just a bit before you want to eat these. The flavor is best when not too cold as you will not taste the creaminess of the yoghurt straight out of the freezer. A little patience is required!

What better snack to make for a hot summer day than these delicious homemade strawberry yogurt popsicles. Done in a flash and you need only fresh strawberries and some plain yogurt.

Strawberry yogurt popsicles

These homemade popsicles are super easy to make and require only a few simple ingredients. They’re the perfect healthy treat and delicious on a hot day. I’ve used Greek yogurt here, as well as fresh strawberries and fresh raspberries. You can choose if you want to use only one kind of fruit. It’s pretty easy to change the amounts of these yogurt popsicles so there is no right or wrong here. I sweetened it with a little bit of honey but you can add more or replace with maple syrup or regular sugar if you prefer.

I kept the structure of the fruit fairly chunky but if you don’t like that in your homemade strawberry popsicles you can change it by blending the fresh fruits with either a stick blender or a food processor.

Preparing the yogurt mixture

Now you want to have a bit of a rippled effect in the yogurt mixture. So in order to do that I placed the yogurt (I use unsweetened Greek yogurt) in a bowl and the fresh fruit on top. I just swirled it through once or twice so it’s not completely mixed. You want it to look like you see in the photos, although there is nothing wrong with an entire pink mix. Just depends on what you want! So either use the strawberry puree or mix that first in a small bowl with the raspberry puree. Any other fresh berries can be used as well.

Paper cups

Now for fun I actually used small paper cups for making these popsicles. I poured a little bit in the cups. You don’t want to fill them all the way to the top as that would be a giant popsicle. I placed the cups with the yogurt mix into the freezer and after about an hour took them out and placed the popsicle sticks in.

Freeze it for another three hours or so and when ready to consume you can take them out and let them defrost a little bit. You want the yogurt to be a bit soft so the creamy texture comes out better.

You can simply rip the paper cups (or use scissors) to bring out the strawberry yogurt popsicles.

Food allergies

Now if you have a lactose intolerance these strawberry yogurt popsicles can easily be made with coconut milk or coconut yogurt. It’s a pretty healthy recipe so can be eaten by almost anyone. They are definitely not overly sweet, so you can also use some added sugar if you like a sweeter version. I prefer to use honey or maple syrup to prevent any sugar crystals spoiling the fruity popsicles.

Obviously the strawberry mixture can be sweet or not so sweet, depending on when you make it. So make sure to double check the taste of the mixture. In strawberry season I tend to not use much sugar at all, but if the season is not so good a little extra sweetness is a good idea.

Also keep in mind that sweet flavors get a little less sweet once frozen. You can also use sweetened yogurt for this.

Of course you can also use any of your favorite popsicle molds for making these creamy popsicles. Adding some vanilla extract is also delicious and you can also add some small pieces of fruit through the mixture.

How to make the strawberry yogurt popsicles

Mix the yoghurt and the honey together and blend well. Put the cleaned fruit into a bowl and mash with a fork. It’s ok if you have some chunks left.
Put the fruit mix into the yoghurt and just stir a few times. You don’t want to overmix and have a completely pink mix, it should be marbled with pink.
Scoop the mix into your forms of your choice, but make sure not to fill it all the way to the top as that will be too much. Half way is fine.
Put the cups into the freezer.
After an hour take them out of the freezer and stick the wooden stick into the center of the icecream. it should have firmed up enough to be able to hold the stick at this point.
put back in the freezer for at least another three hours before eating.
