Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 cup water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the fresh blueberries, granulated sugar, and water.
Step 2
Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries begin to burst and the mixture thickens slightly.
Step 3
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Let the mixture cool completely to room temperature.
Step 4
Once cooled, purée the blueberry mixture in a blender or food processor until smooth. Set aside.
Step 5
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the plain Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Step 6
Layer the blueberry purée and yogurt mixture alternately into popsicle molds to create a swirled effect. Use a skewer or toothpick to gently swirl the layers if desired.
Step 7
Insert popsicle sticks into the molds and freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until fully frozen.
Step 8
To release the ice pops, briefly run the molds under warm water and gently pull them out. Serve immediately and enjoy!
