I found the recipe below on the Whole Foods Market website and decided to try and make it for JDaniel. He loves fruit and yogurt. This recipe calls for honey. I thought JDaniel’s allergies might benefit from my making something with local honey.
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries, strawberries or pitted cherries ( I used raspberries.
- 1 to 2 tablespoons honey
- 4 (5-ounce) paper cups Aluminum foil
- 4 popsicle sticks or plastic spoons
-
-
Put yogurt, fruit (slightly thawed if using frozen) and honey into a blender and blend to desired consistency. I put the blender on the floor so JDaniel could reach it.
-
-
-
Pour fruit mixture into paper cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
-
-
Cover each cup with foil, then make a small slit in the middle of each foil cover. Insert popsicle sticks into foil, then freeze cups until solid, about 5 hours.

Great recipe! Do you find honey at local farms? We have a little farm that sells honey and fresh eggs – both are wonderful! I am looking forward to Saturday mornings at the farmers’ markets as well. I’m going to try those popsicles – thanks for sharing and visiting 8busyfeet this week!

Awesome! We have done this before also if you have an ice cream maker this same recipe can be used to make some yummy “ice cream!”. If you are out of berries; bananas, peanut butter, yogurt and honey are also yummy!
