Greek Yougurt Ice Pops with Blueberries


Greek yogurt has twice as much protein as regular yogurt. The extra protein will help you feel full and leave you feeling satisfied. It is thicker and more creamier then regular yogurt. This Pops are bomb. My lil ones love them. They have calcium, protein & antioxidants. 

Ingredients:

  • 1 lemon (for this we need only the peel)
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups plain unsweetened Greek-style yogurt
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 1/2 cup blueberries

Method:

  1. Combine water and sugar and heat in small saucepan. When the sugar is dissolved, add the peel from an entire lemon. Simmer for 5 minutes and let cool to room temperature. Strain syrup and discard the peels.
  2. Blend yogurt and honey in a food processor or blender and add the chilled syrup. Pour mixture about three quarters of the way in each of the popsicle molds.
  3. Blend the blueberries separately with a sprinkle of confectioners’ sugar. Pour the mixture into the molds on top of the yogurt. Lastly, swirl the mixture with a skewer for a marbled effect OR i just left the blueberries as it is and put 5 blueberries into each mold along with the yogurt mixture as i like to bit into the berries.
  4. Freeze for about 4 hours.
