Fresh Fruit Firecracker Popsicles

Bella Breakdown

Popsicles are just perfect on those hot summer days and these firecracker popsicles are packed with fresh fruit and super easy to make. This recipe is great because you can use any combinations of fruit you want. We went with strawberries, blueberries and yogurt for a red, white and blue patriotic pop.

To make these all you’ll need is:

• 1/2 pound strawberries
• 1/4 c. sugar
• 1/2 pound blueberries
• 1  1/4 c. low-fat greek yogurt

Start by coring half a pound of strawberries, slice and put in your food processor and add a tablespoon of sugar. Puree until liquid and pour into a spouted measuring cup.

Next add half a pound of blueberries to the food processor and with another tablespoon of sugar and blend until liquid. For the last mixture, add two tablespoons of sugar to your yogurt and stir until combined.

Now all that’s left is to layer everything in your popsicle molds. To create a marbled, layered effect spoon different layers of your purees and yogurt until you’ve used up all of your ingredients.

Swirl with the tip of a pairing knife and then insert your popsicle sticks. Freeze about two and half hours and enjoy!
