We love ice cream. And fruit. And frozen yogurt. All times of the year. These treats allow you to choose your flavors and ingredients - and are so, so good! I've used fat-free vanilla Greek yogurt, but for a true diabetic-friendly, or even lower calorie treat, use fat-free plain yogurt, then sweeten it to your tastebud's preferences with Splenda or another sweetener. You could also use different flavors of yogurt - lemon with the berries would be great! Use any combination of berries to make this different each time.

How To Make berry vanilla popsicles

  • Step 1
    Rinse and clean berries. Place the blueberries in a food processor and run until pureed. Pour the puree in a bowl and set aside. Rinse the food processor bowl and do the same with the blackberries. Pour the puree in a separate bowl.
  • Step 2
    Make sure your popsicle mold is clean and dry.
  • Step 3
    Spoon about a tablespoon of the blueberry puree in each popsicle mold. Spoon about a tablespoon of blackberry puree in on top. Spoon about a tablespoon of yogurt in on top of that. You should be able to repeat each layer one more time. Using a bamboo skewer, gently swirl the berry/yogurt mixture in each popsicle mold.
  • Step 4
    The layers should be swirled together yet still somewhat separated.
  • Step 5
    Place the popsicle mold top on, insert sticks and freeze until solid. If you don't have a popsicle mold, you can use paper cups. Put the paper cups with the berry/yogurt mixture in the freezer for about 20-30 minutes and then insert the sticks so they will stay vertical better.
