Greek yogurt & Fig popsicles (Helados de higos y yogurt griego)








Love posicles  are delicious and easy, I made these some weeks ago  because still I    had some figs and were delicious.
Anyway you can make this recipe with any fruit you like.
(strawberries (in slices) blueberries or raspberries)

Note 
Is true we are in autumn but still I make some popsicles because some days we have really warm days!

Greek yogurt & Fig popsicles

(8 popsicles)


1 1/2 cups of milk
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups greek yogurt
5 figs thickly sliced
Popsicles molds


Method


First, slice the figs so they are rather thick.

Add the milk and sugar to a medium sauce pan and warm the mixture over a low heat. Just till the sugar is fully dissolved.
Add the vanilla extract and the greek yogurt.

Whisk the mixture until is completely smooth.
 Transfer the mixture to a large measuring cup and let it cool in the refrigerator about 1 hour.

Fill each popsicle mold with 1/3 of the yogurt mixture and insert the popsicle sticks.
Let set in the freezer about 1 hour.
 Divide the sliced figs amongst the molds and fill with the remainig mixture.
Put popsicles in the freezer until solid.
To remove the popsicles, either let them sit out for 5 to 10 minutes until soft enough to pull out or submerge the bottom of the popsicle mold (up to the edge of the top) in room temperature water for 10 seconds, then gently pull to release.

Paletas de helado de higos y grogurt griego










Me encantan estos tipos de helados, además de fáciles son mucho más sanos que los comprados.
Los hice con unos higos que me quedaban pero se pueden hacer con: kiwis en rodajas, frutos congelados como frambuesas o arándanos y si encuentran higos mejor!!

  15. I have never made Popsicles before (or at least not since childhood when I just poured in juice). These sound so good. We are in spring and getting ready for summer- so this is the perfect treat on a hot day. I can't wait to make them. They sound delicious to me and easy!

  35. They do look tasty and I like the idea of using strawberries (in slices) blueberries or raspberries too.

    I also sometimes do it this way Coconut Icy Poles - so quick and easy,

    INGREDIENTS:
    coconut milk
    handful of berries
    handful of coconut flakes

    INSTRUCTIONS:
    Put some berries at the bottom of each mould
    Next add a pinch of coconut flakes to each section
    Finally top with the coconut milk (or yoghurt)
    Put in the sticks and freeze until solid

    All the best Jan
