Easy Strawberry Popsicles With Greek Yogurt

Strawberry Popsicles

Whenever the weather warms up, or if we just need a fun snack, we love to have homemade strawberry popsicles. These frozen yogurt pops taste so darn good, but they’re just made with super simple ingredients. They’re creamy and bright in flavor and you can mix them up in about 5 minutes. Making strawberry popsicles to share with the kids is an easy way to offer nutritious foods in a fun format. I love to make my fruit popsicles with Greek yogurt since it adds both protein and a super creamy texture. Paired with the fresh strawberries and lemon, the frozen yogurt is naturally sweet and indulgent tasting. This strawberry frozen yogurt popsicle mixture blends up to be pale pink, which is a fun color, and is rich in Vitamin C, protein, fiber, and probiotics.

Ingredients You Need

To make this strawberry popsicle recipe, you need the following ingredients on hand and ready to go.

Fresh or frozen strawberries: You can use either type of fruit in this strawberry popsicle recipe. Honey (or maple syrup): You can add this to taste according to your preference and the sweetness of the berries. Vanilla extract: This adds another flavor note. Fresh lemon: This perks up all of the flavors, so a little goes a long way. Plain whole milk Greek yogurt: This style of yogurt adds a lot of creaminess to yogurt popsicles.

TIP: You can use frozen strawberries if that’s all you have, though you may need to stop and start the blender a few times to get it blending.

TIP: I try to make strawberry popsicles the day before we plan to eat them so they’re firm and ready to eat, though the morning usually works too if you plan to eat them in the afternoon.

Best Molds for Homemade Freezer Pops

When I make these yogurt popsicles for a crowd (which I often do for parties!), I use small plastic bathroom cups. When I make them for my girls, I use our favorite Zoku Classic Pop Molds. They release super easily and seem to be very durable. We also have these mini ones which are a great size for baby popsicles and for younger toddlers. You can find my full Popsicle Mold guide for more recommendations.

How to Store

Once frozen, transfer strawberry popsicles to a freezer bag for up to 3 months.

Best Tips for Success

When you’re done blending the ingredients together, taste it for sweetness and if it doesn’t taste sweet enough, add a touch more honey or maple syrup. They will taste the same when frozen, so this is your best bet to ensure that they taste great. Use whole milk yogurt if possible. This will enhance the creamy texture in the strawberry yogurt popsicles and will just taste better. Use strawberries that taste good when you try them fresh. This can impact how much sweetener (if any!) you need so taste them as you go. Run the molds or cups under warm water if needed to help them release easily. Serve them outside so any drips or mess is less of an issue. To make these as a baby popsicle, omit the honey and either skip added sweetener or use maple syrup. To make these strawberry yogurt popsicles without a blender, dice the berries, stir everything together and add to popsicle molds. Freeze as directed.
