Fruit Yogurt Popsicles


After lying around in my kitchen cabinet for months, the 8 popsicle moulds were finally being put to work for the very first time. I wasn't really thinking of making this until I saw the boxes of blueberries and strawberries on sale in the supermarket. And it wasn't everyday that we have blueberries here on this sunny island of Singapore. So, I decided to buy 2 packs of them to give this recipe a try, and to freeze the remainders for some other recipes.

One tiny change I made was to just chop up the fruits to tiny bits instead of blending them, so that I can still munch on the frozen bits of fruits while enjoying the smoothness of the yogurt.

Fruit Yogurt Popsicles (recipe from here)

Ingredients : 

- 1 cup plain yogurt 
- 1 cup fresh fruit or frozen fruit, your choice of blueberries, strawberries, cherries, etc
- 2 tablespoons honey 
- 4 wooden popsicle sticks or plastic spoons 
- 4 paper cups, 5 ounce size 
- aluminum foil  
    Directions :

    1) Place the yogurt, fruit (slightly thawed if using frozen) and honey in a blender.
    Blend to desired consistency (some kids like the fruit chunky and others like it smooth).

    2) Pour into paper cups, filling them 3/4 full.

    3)Cover the cups with foil. Make slits in the center of the foil covers and insert the popsicle sticks.

    4) Put in the freezer for about 5 hours or until frozen solid.

    5) When ready, peel off the paper cup and eat. 

    Note : I doubled the recipe and managed to fill about a little less than 7 popsicle moulds.
