Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Wash the strawberries thoroughly under running water.
- Remove the green stems and slice the strawberries into small pieces.
- In a blender, combine the sliced strawberries, Greek yogurt, milk, and honey.
- Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender to ensure all ingredients are well combined.
- Carefully pour the blended mixture into popsicle molds. Leave a small gap at the top of each mold to allow for expansion as they freeze.
- Insert the popsicle sticks into the center of each mold.
- Place the molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze for at least 4-6 hours or until completely solid. For best results, you may want to freeze them overnight.
- If you would like to coat the fruity pops with chocolate, melt your choice of chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until completely melted and smooth.
- You can also melt the chocolate using a double boiler if preferred.
- Once the popsicles are fully frozen, remove them from the molds by briefly running warm water over the outside of the molds.
- Dip each popsicle into the melted chocolate, shaking off any excess.
- Place the chocolate-coated popsicles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- After dipping all the popsicles, place the baking sheet in the freezer to allow the chocolate to harden. This should take about 10-15 minutes.
- Once the chocolate is fully set, your chocolate-coated fruity pops are ready to enjoy. Serve immediately or store them in the freezer in an airtight container for later.
Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries to ensure maximum flavor and natural sweetness.
- If you prefer a thicker consistency, use whole milk Greek yogurt instead of reduced-fat varieties.
- For an extra nutrition boost, consider adding a handful of spinach or a scoop of protein powder to the mixture before freezing.
- Feel free to customize by dipping the pops into crushed nuts or toasted coconut after coating with chocolate.
- Ensure the pops are completely frozen before attempting to coat them in chocolate to avoid melting.
