How to Make It

Prepare these simple steps to enjoy your delicious Berry Protein Popsicles.

Blend the base

Add the greek yogurt, almond milk, honey, and vanilla protein powder to a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth.

Incorporate the berries

Next, add the mixed berries to the yogurt mixture. Blitz or pulse the blender until the berries are combined into the mixture, but not completely blended in. This will take only 1 – 2 seconds, slightly more if you are not using a high speed blender.

Fill the molds

Pour the popsicle mixture into a popsicle mold. Cover the mold and add a popsicle stick to each one. Freeze overnight. I was able to make around 8 popsicles, but this will depend on the mold you use.

Remove and serve

Remove the popsicles from the freezer the next day. Carefully remove the protein pops from the mold. Serve and enjoy! Store in an airtight container in the freezer.

How to Store It

Fridge: Use within 3 days in an airtight container.
Freezer: Yes, keeps well for several weeks.
Reheat: Not applicable; enjoy frozen.

Tips for Best Results
