Ingredients
Scale
Fruit
- 1 pound frozen sliced peaches
Dairy
- 2 cups plain Greek yogurt (5% fat)
Sweeteners and Thickeners
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
Spices
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
Instructions
- Prepare Peach Yogurt Base: Add about half of the frozen sliced peaches, the plain Greek yogurt, honey, cornstarch, and ground cardamom to the bowl of a food processor. Process the mixture until it is smooth, creating a creamy base with well-blended flavors.
- Add Peach Chunks: Add the remaining half of the frozen peaches to the food processor. Instead of blending fully, pulse a few times until the peaches break down into large chunks, maintaining some texture within the popsicles.
- Fill Popsicle Molds: Scoop the peach yogurt mixture into your popsicle molds evenly. Cover the molds and insert the popsicle sticks securely to prepare for freezing.
- Freeze Until Solid: Place the molds in the freezer and let them freeze until fully solid, which typically takes at least 5 hours, depending on your freezer’s temperature. To remove the popsicles, briefly run the molds under warm water to loosen them, then gently slide the popsicles out for serving.
Notes
- Use Greek yogurt with 5% fat for the best creamy texture, but you can opt for lower fat if preferred.
- If cardamom is not available or preferred, you can omit it or substitute with a pinch of cinnamon for a different flavor profile.
- Ensure peaches are frozen to maintain the popsicle texture and to avoid melting too quickly.
- Running the molds under warm water briefly makes it easier to release the popsicles without breaking them.
