Fruit and Yogurt Pops are a refreshing, wholesome treat for hot summer days. Layered with mango and Greek yogurt, they’re quite eye-catching too.
Who’s craving summer popsicles? I am and I can’t wait to grill out and eat these Fruit and Yogurt Pops with mango. They are just the right amount of sweet and refreshing while stilling being incredible wholesome. In other words, they can be eaten without guilt!
They are easily mixed up with frozen mango and almond milk. The white layer is simply Greek Yogurt, a dash more of milk and a bit of sweetener. You can use maple syrup, honey or stevia.
Don’t like mango? No problem. You can swap out the frozen mango for any fruit you want. Here are some of my favorites…
raspberries
strawberries
blackberries
peaches
kiwi
pineapple
Dairy free? These Mango Yogurt Popsicles are so adaptable – use coconut or almond yogurt. I am amazed by the selection of non-dairy yogurts at the store these days. Awesome! If you wanted to add a layer of granola to the bottom of the pops that would be cute too. Then you could eat them for breakfast.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need popsicle molds to make these, or is there a substitute?
Small paper cups work well. Pour in the mixture, cover with foil, and insert a wooden stick through the foil to hold it upright while freezing.
Can I use fresh mango instead of frozen?
Fresh mango works, but frozen mango produces a thicker, creamier base that layers more cleanly in the mold.
Why does the recipe call for two separate freezing steps?
Freezing the mango layer first before adding the yogurt keeps the two layers distinct rather than mixing into one color.
How long do these pops keep in the freezer?
Store them in an airtight bag or container for up to 2 weeks. After that, ice crystals can affect the texture.
Can I substitute the maple syrup with another sweetener?
Honey or agave syrup both work in the same amount. Taste the yogurt layer before freezing and adjust sweetness to your preference.
