Yogurt Popsicles

These 3-ingredient yogurt popsicles are super fun and easy to make! Mix and match any combination of fruit, yogurt, and sweetener for a healthy, simple, and perfect summertime treat.

I don’t know about you, but I love finding a great clearance deal at the grocery store. Recently I found LOTS of yogurt and Greek Yogurt marked down, and I stocked up. Usually, I make my own yogurt but I couldn’t resist!

When my kids were tired of having Yogurt Parfaits and Protein Smoothies, I had to find another way to use up the yogurt before it went bad. I could just freeze the yogurt as-is, but I wanted to make a cold, delicious treat. And just like that, yogurt popsicles were born!

Yogurt Popsicles

I love these super easy yogurt popsicles for so many reasons, but mainly because you can use any fruit, yogurt, and sweetener you want.

Homemade popsicles are a fun and easy way to enjoy a nutritious frozen treat. Plus they’re naturally gluten free!

Kids and adults alike will love the fun swirls and creamy texture. You can use your favorite fruits for a sweet treat without high fructose corn syrup or artificial sweeteners, which we try to avoid.

And you don’t need any special equipment to make them, aside from a good popsicle mold. This one is my favorite, but if I’m making a big batch of yogurt pops, I’ll use small paper cups and popsicle sticks and just freeze a whole bunch at once on a baking sheet.

Simple Ingredients for Greek Yogurt Popsicles

Yogurt. We’ve used several brands of yogurt for Greek yogurt popsicles, several different types of fat content, several different flavors, and even plain yogurt.

Fruit. You can use frozen fruit or fresh fruit; we’ve made these with strawberries, blueberries, peaches, raspberries, pineapple, cherries, and blackberries so far.

Sweetener. When we tested flavored yogurt, it was already sweetened, and I didn’t add any additional sweetener to those batches.

But when we tested a 5% fat plain Greek yogurt, everyone in the family agreed that a smidge of local raw honey would help tame the tang.

When we were in the process of quitting sugar or coming off a Whole30, we were used to not needing much extra sweetener, and one teaspoon of honey was perfect for one yogurt popsicle. You can certainly add more to fit your tastes!

You could easily substitute maple syrup or stevia. Mix and match to find your favorite combination for yogurt popsicles!

How to Make Frozen Yogurt Popsicles

Step 1: Put fresh fruit in a large bowl. Cut large pieces down to roughly ¼″ in size so that they fit in the popsicle molds. If you want yogurt swirl popsicles, lightly mash the fruit against the side of the bowl.

Step 2: Add yogurt and raw honey (if using) and fold together with the fruit. Take care not to over-stir if you want visible swirls in your popsicles. Taste and adjust sweetener, if needed.

Step 3: Carefully pour the yogurt mixture into the popsicle mold and freeze until solid, at least 2-3 hours.

Step 4: Rinse the popsicle mold under hot water or warm water to loosen the homemade frozen popsicles and enjoy!

Note: You can also use a blender or food processor to blend your ingredients together. This works best if you’re using larger chunks of frozen strawberries or other fruit. You’ll get a pretty color instead of the swirls but still end up with a delicious yogurt popsicle.

Yogurt Popsicle Tips

If you need to make a big batch, you can store the popsicles (once they’re frozen) in a container with a lid or in a freezer bag instead of in the mold itself. Make sure to remove as much air as possible from the freezer bag to avoid freezer burn.

Our popsicles were frozen for 2-3 hours on the top shelf of a standard side-by-side fridge/freezer.

You can use popsicle sticks instead of the holders that come with the pop molds. This is a great option if your family is prone to losing things, or if you’re taking them on a walk to the pool or park.

Boost the nutrition of these yogurt popsicles even more by adding grass-fed collagen. (Here’s why collagen is healthy for you.)
