Breakfast Popsicles
Start your day with these delicious Breakfast Popsicles! Creamy Greek yogurt and fresh fruits make a nutritious, on-the-go treat.
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup full-fat plain Greek yogurt
- ½ cup nonfat milk (or use a milk alternative)
- 3 tablespoons honey (can sub maple syrup)
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- ½ cup fresh blueberries
- 2 medium kiwi (peeled and sliced)
- ½ cup fresh strawberries (sliced)
Instructions
- Start by gathering all your ingredients. Wash the blueberries, peel and slice the kiwi, and slice the strawberries. This will make the blending process much smoother.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the full-fat plain Greek yogurt, nonfat milk, and honey (or maple syrup). Use a whisk to mix them until smooth. If you prefer a sweeter taste, feel free to adjust the amount of honey or syrup.
- Stir in the chia seeds, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the yogurt mixture. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, allowing the chia seeds to absorb some liquid and expand.
- In your popsicle molds, start by placing a layer of blueberries at the bottom. Next, pour a layer of the yogurt mixture over the blueberries. Follow with a layer of sliced kiwi, then more yogurt, and finally top with sliced strawberries. Repeat the layers until the molds are full, leaving a little space at the top for expansion as they freeze.
- Insert the popsicle sticks into the molds. If your molds have a lid, secure it. Place the molds in the freezer for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely frozen.
- To remove the popsicles, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds. Gently pull the popsicles out. Serve immediately or store in a freezer-safe bag for later enjoyment!
