Blueberry Greek Yogurt Popsicles
Are fruit popsicles healthy?
Whether or not your popsicle recipes are healthy really depends on what you put in them. If they contain yogurt and fresh fruit, or they’re made without a lot of added sugar, chances are they are a healthy frozen treat!
That’s why yogurt popsicles are such a favorite of mine. They contain only one tablespoon of added sweetness from the honey. LOADS of fresh blueberries and vanilla yogurt – you can’t go wrong!
How to make popsicles at home
These fruit popsicles are so easy to make at home that you’ll never want to buy them at the store again. All you will need is a popsicle mold of some sort.
You can make popsicle fruit pops in any type of mold from a Dixie cup and a popsicle stick to a popsicle mold. If you want them to look like the ones you buy at a store, you will want to use a mold.
Ingredients in Vanilla Blueberry Yogurt Popsicles
All of the ingredients in these Greek yogurt popsicles are blended until they are smooth and creamy. But, if you want a popsicle recipe that has chunks of fruit, you can make whole fruit popsicles as well!
Just add whole blueberries to the popsicle mold before you freeze them. They will need to be small enough to fit into the mold. So, you may need to slice them in half if they are too large.
For larger fruits, you may want to slice them into thin slices rather than thicker chunks.
What other fruits can I use?
You can puree almost any type of fruit for these fruit popsicles. Why not try another type of fresh berry. Or, try mango, pineapple, kiwi, or even peach.
Pureed bananas make a great choice if you are looking for fruit popsicles with no added sugar. They are sweet enough on their own. The important thing to remember is to blend the fruit so the texture is creamy and smooth.
Dairy Free Yogurt Pops
If you want coconut milk popsicles, you can add coconut yogurt rather than traditional Greek yogurt, for a lactose-free popsicle recipe. Or, you could try another plant-based yogurt like soy or almond.
Pro Tips for Making Greek Yogurt Popsicles
- For a creamier consistency.
If you’re wondering how to make popsicles creamy, not icy, it’s the addition of the yogurt that adds creaminess these blueberry popsicles. - Let them freeze completely.
The hardest part about making these yogurt popsicles is waiting for them to freeze. When making fruit popsicles, you will need to let them freeze for at least 4 hours.
I like to freeze mine for 24 hours, just to make sure everything is solid. So, make sure you plan ahead and make them the day before you want to enjoy them.
Serving Suggestions
If you’re planning on serving the blueberry yogurt popsicles at a party, I find it’s best to set them in a large tray of ice cubes so that they stay frozen and don’t melt.
And, if you are serving them to kids, slip a cupcake liner through the stick on the bottom to catch any of the messy drips. You’ll appreciate it when it’s time to clean up.
Enjoy!

I love popsicles! Must ry this!
These look so delicious! I'm so gonna buy a Ice Pop Maker! ^_^
I love fruity popsicles…The ombre effect looks perfect!
these look so great would love one right now so humid in NC :0)
These pops are such so much fun, what a refreshing treat! I love the 2 tone of your pops.
Looks delicious and well my favorite food is blueberries – hence the name of my blog!
Delicious pops…came here through Foodgawker and couldn’t stop appreciating the clicks!! The recipe sounds a cool treat!!!
These look delicious! What kind of popsicle molds did you use?
Those are stunning!
Which Popsicle mold did you use??
We get our molds from Amazon and eBay. Search ice pop molds, frozen treat molds, popsicle molds.
Hope that helps.
Well I think this is really cool. Thanks!
These look really good. Just be sure you know that if you use the blueberries with dairy they will not have their antioxidant power. I gave up blueberries in my smoothies when I found this out.
a craft for the kids and dessert to. Win win.
Not understanding one part, the recipe and the picture don't seem to match – not sure how you get the light vanilla top if you blended it w/ the blueberries. Am I missing something?
Good point Andie. I made these and split the yogurt added some with the blueberries and some on its own… Here is the recipe for you.
Fill popsicle molds with 1½ cups yogurt. Layer blueberry mixture on top. Freeze 4-24 hours, until popsicles are frozen through. I like to freeze mine for 24 hours.
Hope that helps! Donna
sorry, what? You put vanilla yogurt on the bottom (no blueberries), and then put the blueberry mixture on top? Wouldn't the yogurt by itself be very not-sweet? Want to make these for my little grandson and thinking the first bite of tart yogurt would turn him right off.
Vanilla flavoured yogurt is already sweetened.
Go with the popsicle sticks! Have you tried Yakult Milk yogurt (with the fruit on the bottom) in the freezer? It's delicious!
I found this recipe a few weeks ago on Pinterest and have been dying to try it. I finally found popsicle molds on sale at Kohls and made them last weekend, but I substituted the blueberries for fresh cherries. I was positively giddy when I tasted them. They were absolutely DELICIOUS. I used vanilla flavored greek yogurt instead of regular vanilla yogurt and they turned out great. No problems with consistency, flavor, or texture. They're really refreshing for summer and I can't wait to try other flavor combinations. Thanks so much for the recipe!! 🙂 This is a summer favorite for sure!
Katie my mouth is watering. Fresh cherries are going in my next batch!!!
Oh my gosh, wishing I had any one of those right now!
Thanks Mary! They are pretty refreshing.
As far as popsicles go, these are outstanding. We'll be making these again soon!! A little sweet, made as written, yet oh so delicious…and it feels good to be eating blueberries that are so good for us.
I like the Blueberry, but my favorite fruit is Strawberries so I did the Strawberry Banana and it will become a Summer staple at my house. I have loved everything you have shared. Thanks
They are in the freezer 😃. I mix organic vanilla greek yogourt, organic blueberries and maple syrup. They look yummy.
Those really look good! I'm a total schmuck when it comes to doing things like this, and I'm struggling to just make a simple frozen yogurt popsicle, but I am very willing to learn, so please give me some advice and tell me what to try next: https://youtu.be/nClSsqNgl0Q
Love how simple and healthy these are. Saving to try!
I haven’t made my own popsicles since I was a kid, and this is just a grown up version. These were so creamy because of the yogurt, and I loved the blueberry.
