There are ice pops that you buy at the grocery store that are pure hits of summer nostalgia. Red, white, and blue with nothing natural about them whatsoever—and we love them.
Then there are homemade popsicles that are creamy, sweet, and refreshing and so good for you that I don’t feel a wee bit guilty about having one for breakfast. I mean these healthy popsicles are essentially a frozen smoothie.

While we’re on the subject, have you ever tried my blueberry buttermilk banana popsicles? They are another must-make recipe. Oh, also these blueberry lemon verbena popsicles are amazing too. Can you tell I have a thing for blueberry popsicles?
If you want super easy yogurt popsicles, you don’t have to make them striped but I promise you it will convince even the pickiest kid to give these homemade yogurt popsicles a try. If that’s not an issue for you, use all one fruit and forget the stripes or try your favorite seasonal fruits. Strawberries, raspberries, bananas, or even blackberries are all delicious.
If baked breakfast treats are more your thing, these cinnamon pumpkin seed muffins or a batch of almond cranberry granola are an excellent choices.
Yogurt Popsicles Ingredients
- Low-fat or full fat vanilla yogurt. Greek yogurt works great but really any kind of vanilla yogurt will work. You can also use plain Greek yogurt but you will need to add more honey and a touch of vanilla extract to add the vanilla flavor.
- Frozen blueberries or any kind of berries. Fresh fruit like fresh strawberries work too.
- Frozen peaches or your favorite fresh or frozen fruit like mangoes or pineapple.
- Honey or agave syrup
- Almond milk or regular whole milk
How To Make These Greek Yogurt Popsicles!
step one
Make blueberry mixture. Combine 1 cup of the yogurt, the blueberries, 1/2 cup of the almond milk, and 1 tablespoon of the honey in a blender and blend until smooth. If you’re in the market for a new blender, here’s my recommendations.
step two
Freeze first layer. Fill a popsicle mold one-third of the way full with the blueberry mixture. I made 10 popsicles, if your molds are smaller or larger you may make more or less than 10. Put the mold in the freezer and let freeze for 1 hour. Place the remaining blueberry mixture in a liquid measuring cup and keep cold in the refrigerator. Wash the blender and set aside to dry.
step three
Make peach mixture. Combine remaining yogurt, peaches, almond milk, and honey in a blender and blend until smooth.
step four
Freeze second layer. Evenly distribute the peach mixture between the popsicle molds. You will use all the peach mixture. Insert the popsicle sticks and freeze for another hour.
step five
Finish popsicles. Give reserved blueberry mixture a stir then pour mixture on top of the molds. Freeze until completely frozen, at least 4 hours. The layering doesn’t have to be an exact science, just do your best to get the layers even.
step six
Remove. Run popsicle molds under hot water to loosen and remove. I tend to remove them all at once and lay on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or wax paper then freeze again until hard and transfer to a freezer bag. If you can’t wait that long, enjoy immediately!

Yogurt Popsicle FAQ’s
What’s the best yogurt to use? I used full-fat vanilla Greek yogurt but really any yogurt will work. The higher the fat content in the yogurt, the creamier they will be. You can use plain yogurt if you’d like but you may need to add more honey and a touch of vanilla extract, taste and adjust to your desired level of sweetness.
Which popsicle mold is best? This is my favorite popsicle mold. I like it because it is easy to pour the yogurt mixture in layers after you’ve inserted the popsicle stick into the second layer.
I don’t have ice pop molds, can I still make them? Yes, the molds I used are 5.75 x 9 x 4 inches so if you have paper cups that are similar to that size, they would work too. Or use small paper cups, muffin tins, or ice cube trays and just make more popsicles. Cover the tops of the paper cups with plastic wrap then poke the popsicle stick through the plastic wrap. Aluminum foil works too.

Notes
- Layering Tips: Don’t stress about perfect stripes! The layers can be rustic and still look beautiful. If you want more defined stripes, freeze each layer a bit longer before adding the next.
- Removal Tip: Running the molds under hot water for 10–15 seconds makes it easier to release the popsicles without breaking them.
- Fruit Swaps: You can substitute fresh or frozen mango, strawberries, or raspberries for the peaches or blueberries—just keep the proportions the same.
- Make Ahead: These popsicles can be made up to a week in advance. Once fully frozen, store in a freezer bag for grab-and-go treats or healthy breakfast.
