Blueberry Yogurt Pops Recipes

BLUEBERRY-YOGURT POPSICLES

Steps:

• Combine yogurt, blueberries, and sugar in a blender. Puree until smooth. Pour into popsicle molds. Freeze overnight or until set.

FROZEN BLUEBERRY YOGURT POPS

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in blender. Cover; blend on high speed 15 to 20 seconds or until smooth.
• Pour into 8 frozen pop molds (2.5 ounces to 3 ounces each). Cover, insert craft sticks, and freeze for 2 hours or until completely firm.
• To serve, dip outsides of molds into warm water to loosen.

BLUEBERRY YOGURT POPS

Steps:

• Put the blueberry preserves into a quart-size heavy resealable plastic food bag and squeeze it into one corner. Put the yogurt into the bag and squeeze it gently with your hands to lightly mix; swirls of blueberry throughout the yogurt are fine.
• Arrange 6 mini paper drink cups on a small baking sheet. Using scissors, cut about 1/2 inch off the corner of the bag and squeeze the swirled yogurt mixture into the cups, filling them about two-thirds full. Gently insert a 6-inch lollipop stick into each cup. The thickness of the yogurt should help the sticks stand upright.
• Freeze for at least 2 hours before peeling off the paper cups and serving.

BLUEBERRY FROZEN YOGURT

Steps:

• Combine 1/4 cup of the blueberries, 2 tablespoons water, 1 tablespoon honey and the thyme sprigs in a small heavy saucepan. Coarsely mash the blueberries using a fork or a potato masher. Place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Remove the pan from the heat, cover and let the mixture stand for 15 minutes. Uncover the pan and let the syrup cool slightly. Discard the thyme sprigs.
• Place the remaining blueberries, remaining 1/3 cup honey, yogurt, agave, lemon juice and cooled blueberry syrup in a blender or food processor. Blend until the mixture is almost smooth.
• Transfer the yogurt mixture to a shallow glass baking dish, cover and freeze until slushy, about 2 hours. Using a fork, stir to blend. Continue to freeze until firm, at least 8 hours or overnight. Using the tines of a fork, scrape the mixture into small serving bowls or glasses. Serve immediately.

BLUEBERRY CREAM POPSICLES

Steps:

• In a medium pot, toss the blueberries, lemon juice, sugar and salt to combine. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries burst and the mixture becomes juicy, 4 to 5 minutes. (Add 2 to 4 minutes of cook time if you're using frozen, unthawed berries.
• Transfer to the bowl of a food processor or blender and cool for 10 minutes. Purée the mixture until relatively smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the sweetened condensed milk and blend until combined, 20 to 30 seconds. Scrape the bowl well.
• Add the heavy cream and process until the mixture is well combined and thickens slightly, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add the sour cream and vanilla and blend until fully incorporated, 30 seconds to 1 minute. If necessary, transfer the mixture to a large container with a spout, such as a 4-cup/1-liter liquid measuring cup. Divide the mixture between the popsicle molds, filling each just under the rim of the cavity of the mold. Gently press a popsicle stick into the center of each cavity and freeze until firm, at least 8 hours.
• To unmold, gently run warm water over the base of the molds. They should easily release. Keep frozen until ready to serve.
