Berry Yogurt Popsicles are a classic healthy Summer treat. They are so quick and easy to make and deliciously refreshing on a hot day. When that heatwave hits, you’ll be glad to have a few popsicles stored in your freezer. Personally, I think yogurt Popsicles are a little too icy in texture, so I added a full-fat can of whipped coconut milk for extra creaminess. I also used authentic full-fat Greek yogurt. Again, this is because we don’t want an icy Popsicle, we want a creamy one that you can easily bite into. Don’t skimp on the fat on this one – low-fat simply won’t work! They are full of nutritious berries, hence the name Berryliscious Coconut & Greek Yogurt Popsicles.

Choice of Fruit

I used a combination of 4 berries: Strawberry, Raspberry, Blackberry & Blueberry. Blended together, they result in the prettiest berry colour and fresh fruity taste. Berry Yogurt Popsicles are just a Summer staple. However, you can use any fruit combination that you’d like. This recipe would work just as well with fruit like pineapple, mango, kiwi or peaches. Customize it to suit your personal taste. I’m totally imagining how yummy a Piña Colada cocktail Popsicle would be (next Popsicle recipe, what do you think?!).

How to make Popsicles

You will need a Popsicle mold to make them; I used a silicone one with 8 servings. This recipe fits into 8 Popsicles EXACTLY. Always leave some empty space at the top, so it doesn’t overflow when you close the lid and add the sticks. The best thing is you can store them in the freezer for at least 2 months. That means if you make them once or twice per Summer, you always have them on hand. Just make sure to wrap each one in parchment paper or else they will stick together. Or you could always leave them in the mold until you want one!

As always, let me know if you make them, I’d love to see!

Happy indulging,

Berryliscious Coconut & Greek Yogurt Popsicles

Berry Greek Yogurt Popsicles with whipped coconut milk for extra creaminess. They are a classic healthy Summer treat. Quick, easy, refreshing and delicious!

Prep Time 20 minutes

Chill Time 2 hours

Total Time 2 hours 20 minutes

Ingredients

2 cups full-fat Greek Yogurt (400g)
1 can full-fat coconut milk, whipped
1 tbsp agave syrup (or honey/maple)
2 cups mixed berries of choice, blended:
(Strawberry, Raspberry, Blackberry & Blueberry)
1 cup extra berries, halved or quartered

Instructions

Blend 2 cups mixed berries together until completely incorporated. Divide into 2 bowls and set aside. Slice 1 cup berries in halves or quarters.
Whisk the canned coconut milk to stiff peaks in a large bowl. Fold the yogurt and agave into the whisked coconut milk to create the cream.
Fill 1/3 of the popsicle molds with the plain cream mixture. Add a few of the sliced berries into the mold, using a skewer to gently press down.
Add one bowl of the blended berries into the cream and mix to get the middle gradient. Fill in another 1/3 of the molds with the blended mixture. Again, add a few sliced berries and push down gently.
Combine the remaining bowl of blended berries with the berries and cream mixture to get the darkest gradient. Fill the rest of the mold, leaving some empty space at the top.
Use a skewer to gently blend the gradient of berry to white together. Close the mold with the lid and pop in the popsicle sticks.
Freeze for at least 2 hours, pop out and enjoy!
