DIY fruit and yogurt lollies (ice pops) three ways

Today I'm bringing you an exciting selection of three yummy fruit and yogurt lolly recipes, so that everyone can find their perfect Summer cooler.

Now, what I love about ice lollies is they're so easy to make, taste delicious and are often a lot healthier than store-bought ones which can be pretty high in sugar or use a base that's high in fat, colouring, preservatives and so on.

All three of these yogurt lolly recipes have natural vanilla yogurt as the base, and are bursting with fruity flavour which means they're not just super refreshing but wonderfully healthy too.

Now let's get on with the mixing, freezing and eating!

Coconut and blueberry yogurt lollies

Instructions

Pulse the blueberries, vanilla yogurt and coconut milk in blender until ‘smashed’ but not completely blended.

Divide the mixture between four ice lolly moulds.

Place a lolly stick into each cup and freeze for a minimum of 8 hours.

Strawberry, kiwi and granola yogurt lollies

Instructions

Chop the strawberries and kiwis into small chunks.

Mix the fruit into the vanilla yogurt.

Place a little fruit and yogurt mix into each of the four ice lolly moulds, followed by a thin layer of granola.

Repeat until the ice lolly moulds are full.

Place a lolly stick into each cup.

Freeze for a minimum of 8 hours.

Blueberries and strawberries yogurt lollies

Instructions

Slice the strawberries thinly, lengthways.

Place sliced fruit around the inside of four lolly moulds.

Mix the yogurt with the blueberries.

Carefully spoon the yogurt mix into the moulds.

Place a lolly stick into each cup. Freeze for a minimum of 8 hours.

Enjoy!

That's it - after 8 hours remove your fruity yogurt lollies from the freezer and enjoy!
