Description

These Peach Yogurt Popsicles are a refreshing and healthy frozen treat, perfect for warm days. Made with creamy Greek yogurt, sweet honey, and fresh peaches with a hint of cardamom, they offer a delightful combination of fruity and creamy flavors. Easy to make in just a few simple steps using a food processor and freezer, these popsicles are a nutritious dessert or snack that the whole family will love.


Ingredients

Fruits

  • 1 pound frozen sliced peaches

Dairy

  • 2 cups plain Greek yogurt (5% fat)

Other

  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom


Instructions

  1. Prepare the peach yogurt base: Add about half of the frozen sliced peaches, the Greek yogurt, honey, cornstarch, and ground cardamom to the bowl of a food processor. Process the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are well combined.
  2. Add chunkier peaches: Add the remaining half of the frozen peaches to the food processor. Pulse a few times just until the peaches break down into large chunks, giving the popsicles a nice texture with some fruit pieces.
  3. Fill popsicle molds: Spoon the peach yogurt mixture carefully into popsicle molds, filling each mold evenly. Insert the popsicle sticks into the molds, then cover them to prevent freezer odors.
  4. Freeze until solid: Place the molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze solid, usually for at least 5 hours depending on your freezer’s settings. Once fully frozen, run the molds under warm water for a few seconds to loosen the popsicles, then gently slide them out for serving.

Notes

  • Use frozen peaches to achieve the best texture and flavor. Fresh peaches can be used but may require pre-freezing before blending.
  • Adjust the amount of honey to your preferred sweetness level or substitute with maple syrup or agave nectar.
  • The cornstarch helps thicken the mixture; if you want a creamier texture, you can increase it slightly.
  • If you don’t have cardamom, you can omit it or replace it with a pinch of cinnamon for a warm spice note.
  • For creamier popsicles, you can use full-fat Greek yogurt or add a splash of heavy cream.
  • Storage: Keep popsicles stored in an airtight container or covered mold to prevent freezer burn and odors.
