Key Ingredients and Notes
Fresh Strawberries
Use ripe, red strawberries for the best flavor. Frozen strawberries also work if thawed and drained. Strawberries are rich in vitamin C and antioxidants which is one reason they are highlighted by nutrition experts at Healthline https://www.healthline.com.
Greek Yogurt
Plain or vanilla Greek yogurt gives the popsicles a thick, creamy body. Full fat yogurt makes the smoothest texture. Low fat works too but freezes slightly firmer. For dairy free, coconut yogurt is excellent.
Honey or Maple Syrup
Either works beautifully. Honey adds floral sweetness. Maple syrup keeps the recipe vegan. Start with less and taste after blending.
Ingredient science note. Yogurt proteins and natural sugars help prevent large ice crystals which is why these popsicles stay creamy.
