Cool off with these refreshing Raspberry Greek Yogurt Popsicles! Made with just two simple ingredients, they’re creamy, tangy, and naturally sweet. Perfect for a healthy summer treat!
Ever since my boys were little, I have tried to find ways to make sweet treats healthier. From the time they were toddlers, we’ve made frozen yogurt covered strawberries, chocolate chip zucchini bread, and the recipe I’m sharing today: Raspberry Greek Yogurt Popsicles. The perfect sweet treat as the weather starts to warm up, I also enjoy a good popsicle sometimes in the middle of winter! Either way, you’ll fill that sweet craving with no guilt.
Ingredients
- Yogurt: Vanilla Greek yogurt is the perfect amount of sweet, while also being a great source of protein and calcium!
- Raspberries: A naturally sweet taste and sometimes a little tart, and full of antioxidants and vitamin C.
Easy Swaps
- I love to use Greek yogurt for the higher protein content, but you could do this with regular whole milk or low-fat yogurt! Or use plain yogurt and sweeten with honey.
- Try this with blackberries, blueberries, or other fruit like peaches or citrus!
- I also highly recommend adding some orange blossom water. It’s not mandatory, but just like it does in cocktails and desserts, it is what will have your friends asking for the recipe.
How to Make Raspberry Greek Yogurt Popsicles
Step 1. Take your fresh raspberries and mash them up a bit in a bowl.
Step 2. Add your Greek yogurt to a large bowl.
Step 3. Add the mashed berries and mix until fully incorporated.
Step 4. Pour mixture evenly into popsicle molds, or small cups with popsicle sticks. Then throw in the freezer until firm.
Once you’re yogurt pops have been in the freezer for about 3 hours and are firm, remove from the molds and enjoy your Raspberry Greek Yogurt Popsicles!
