Blueberry Yogurt Swirl Popsicles Recipe

Essential Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious dish:

  • Fresh Blueberries: Choose plump, ripe blueberries for the best flavor; frozen works too if fresh isn’t available.
  • Greek Yogurt: Use plain or vanilla for creaminess; it adds protein and tanginess to balance the sweetness.
  • Honey or Maple Syrup: Sweeten to taste; maple syrup gives a lovely depth of flavor.
  • Lemon Juice: A splash brightens up the flavors and balances sweetness perfectly.

Let’s Make it Together

Prepare Your Ingredients: Rinse your blueberries under cool water and pat them dry with a kitchen towel. This helps remove any residue and ensures freshness in each bite.

Create the Blueberry Mixture: In a blender, add your fresh blueberries along with honey or maple syrup and lemon juice. Blend until smooth but still slightly chunky for texture. For more inspiration, check out this blueberry butter swim biscuits recipe.

Mix the Yogurt Base: In a separate bowl, combine Greek yogurt with a bit more honey if desired. Stir until well mixed; this creates that creamy base everyone loves.

Layer It Up!: Grab your popsicle molds and start layering! Pour some blueberry mixture at the bottom followed by yogurt mix. Repeat until molds are filled, creating beautiful swirls.

Add Sticks & Freeze: Insert popsicle sticks into each mold and place them in the freezer. Let them freeze for at least 4-6 hours or overnight for best results.
