Lemon Curd with Blackberries
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup lemon curd (homemade or store-bought)
- Milk, to thin the mixture (about 2-3 tablespoons)
- Honey, to taste
- Fresh blackberries (2-3 per popsicle)
Green Kiwi
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 3/4 cup mashed green kiwi mixed with 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- Milk, to thin the mixture (about 2-3 tablespoons)
- Honey, to taste
Roasted Strawberries
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup roasted strawberries
- Milk, to thin the mixture (about 2-3 tablespoons)
- Honey, to taste
- Prepare Lemon Curd with Blackberries mixture: In a blender, combine 2 cups of Greek yogurt with ½ cup lemon curd and blend until well incorporated.
- Adjust consistency: Add milk one tablespoon at a time while blending until the mixture reaches a creamy, smooth consistency — not too thick nor too thin.
- Sweeten: Taste the mixture and add honey according to your preference, blending again to fully incorporate the sweetness.
- Fill molds and add blackberries: Pour the mixture evenly into popsicle molds, filling them about three-quarters full. Drop 2 to 3 fresh blackberries into each mold.
- Freeze: Place the molds in the freezer and freeze overnight or until the popsicles are frozen solid.
- Prepare Green Kiwi mixture: In a blender, blend 2 cups of Greek yogurt with a few tablespoons of milk (adding one tablespoon at a time) until creamy and smooth.
- Sweeten and blend: Add honey to taste and blend again to incorporate.
- Layer kiwi and yogurt mixture: Spoon about a tablespoon of the mashed green kiwi (mixed with sugar) into each popsicle mold, then top with the yogurt mixture.
- Freeze: Freeze the filled molds overnight or until solid.
- Prepare Roasted Strawberries mixture: Blend 2 cups Greek yogurt with 1 cup roasted strawberries until fully combined.
- Adjust consistency: Add milk by the tablespoon as needed to achieve a smooth, creamy texture, then sweeten with honey and blend again.
- Fill molds and freeze: Pour the strawberry mixture evenly into the popsicle molds and freeze overnight or until solid.
Notes
- You can control sweetness by adjusting honey to your taste or omitting it for a tangier treat.
- Milk is used to thin the yogurt mixture; adjust amount depending on desired creaminess.
- Roasting strawberries enhances their flavor and sweetness; you can roast them by baking at 375°F for about 20 minutes with a little sugar.
- For best results, allow popsicles to freeze overnight to ensure full solidity.
- To easily unmold, run warm water on the outside of the molds for a few seconds before removing.
