These peach and strawberry popsicles are a perfect summer treat, healthy, creamy, refined sugar-free, and gluten-free! Ready in less than 10 minutes, these popsicles are a summer dream!
Is there summer without delicious frozen treats? I love ice-cream, and in Italy, we eat gelato all year long. Yes, you heard me - even during Christmas time. 🙂
Summer has been really hot around here so we have been treating ourselves with lots of iced drinks and frozen desserts, like these delicious and healthy fruit popsicles!
Homemade popsicles make a perfect summer dessert - they are so versatile as you can use any kind of fruit you have at home, and they require less than 10 minutes of preparation time!
Even though the strawberry season is over our garden strawberries are still producing - just enough to collect for morning breakfast bowl or for making frozen desserts. Strawberries and bananas are always a great combination, even when it comes to popsicles.
With peach season in its full swing, I wanted to mix and match colors and flavors, so pink strawberry - banana and creamy Greek yogurt- peach popsicles were perfect!
You can also use berries, add cocoa powder or mix different flavors in one - the choices are really limitless!
With just a handful of simple ingredients, you can get a perfect and healthy dessert for your hot summer days! Toss them in a blender or food processor and leave them to freeze overnight.
Besides being delicious, these frozen popsicles are healthy, refined sugar-free, and gluten-free! For vegan version just swipe honey with maple syrup and plain yogurt with any kind of plant-based yogurt. Mixing peaches with coconut yogurt sounds like a dream!
Healthy Peach-Yogurt and
Banana-Strawberry Popsicles
Marija Gvozdenovic
INGREDIENTS
Serves 8
Prep. time: 10 minutes
FOR THE Creamy Greek yogurt peach popsicles
500ml greek yogurt (or any plant-based yogurt for vegan version)
6 ripe peaches
2 tbsp honey (for vegan version use maple syrup)
1 peach sliced thin
FOR THE STRAWBERRY BANANA POPSICLES
3 ripe bananas
2 handfuls of strawberries
2 tbsp honey (for vegan version use maple syrup)
METHOD
Prepare both popsicle recipes by tossing all the ingredients into a blender or food processor. Mix well until combined and smooth. Pour the mixture into prepared popsicle molds. For the peach-yogurt version add sliced peaches into popsicle molds before pouring in the smoothie liquid. Freeze for at least 8 hours or overnight.
Notes:
Each recipe makes 8 bigger popsicles. The quantity can depend on the size of your molds.
For this recipe, you can also use frozen berries as the preparation time is very short, and you can re-freeze them again to set. For an easier removing of your popsicles, run your popsicle mold under warm water. Make sure not to leave it too much under hot water as it might cause the melting of your popsicles.
