A good ice cream can be eaten anytime, any place. Even when the rain is pouring down or when the birds are falling of the roof because it is so hot. And – as a bonus – these icecream are fairly healthy as well. If you’ve been following me for a while you might have noticed that I have a love for ice cream with yoghurt. A good fullfat Greek yoghurt is perfect or you can use soy yoghurt if you have a dairy intolerance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of yogurt works best for these popsicles?
Full-fat Greek yogurt gives the creamiest texture and prevents the popsicles from turning icy. Low-fat yogurt will work but produces a slightly icier result.
Can I use frozen berries instead of fresh?
Frozen berries work just as well and are often more affordable. No need to thaw them first if you’re blending everything together before pouring into molds.
How long do these popsicles need to freeze before they’re ready?
Allow at least 4 to 6 hours, or overnight for best results. To unmold easily, run the outside of the mold under warm water for a few seconds.
