Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: -
Total Time: 10 mins
Cuisine: Dessert
Serves: 6 ice pops

Ingredients

  1. 1 cup yogurt
  2. 1/2 cup blueberries, pureed
  3. 1/4 cup honey
  4. 1 tsp lemon juice

Instructions

  1. In a blender, combine fresh blueberries and lemon juice. Pulse until the blueberries are completely pureed and smooth.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together yogurt and honey until well combined and smooth. The honey will help prevent ice crystals and add natural sweetness.
  3. Prepare your ice pop molds by lightly spraying or brushing them with a neutral cooking oil to ensure easy removal later.
  4. Pour the yogurt mixture into the ice pop molds, filling them approximately 2/3 full.
  5. Add small spoonfuls of the blueberry puree on top of the yogurt, creating swirled patterns using a thin skewer or knife.
  6. Gently tap the molds on the counter to remove any air bubbles and ensure even distribution of the blueberry swirls.
  7. Insert ice pop sticks into the center of each mold, ensuring they are standing straight.
  8. Place the molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze completely, which typically takes 4-6 hours or overnight.
  9. To remove, run the molds briefly under warm water to loosen the ice pops, then carefully pull them out.
  10. Serve immediately or wrap individually in plastic wrap and store in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

Tips

  1. Use fresh, ripe blueberries for the most intense flavor and vibrant color.
  2. Choose a thick, full-fat yogurt for creamier texture and better freezing consistency.
  3. For an extra smooth swirl, use a thin skewer or toothpick when creating the marbled effect.
  4. If you don't have ice pop molds, small paper cups with wooden sticks work perfectly.
  5. For added nutrition, consider using Greek yogurt which provides more protein.
  6. Experiment with different honey varieties to subtly change the overall flavor profile.
  7. Allow enough freezing time - patience is key to achieving the perfect ice pop texture!
