Peaches & Cream Greek Yogurt Popsicles

Fresh peaches and protein-packed Greek yogurt form the base for these delectable frozen summertime treats.

Yields: 10 three-ounce popsicles

Ingredients

For the peach layer:
3-4 small overripe peaches, sliced in half, pits removed
½ cup vanilla flavored Greek yogurt
splash of almond extract
2 tablespoons sugar (or sweetener of choice - honey, agave, etc.), or to taste
For the cream layer:
1 cup vanilla flavored Greek yogurt
½ cup unsweetened coconut milk*
½ teaspoon vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
2 tablespoons sugar (or sweetener of choice - honey, agave, etc.), or to taste
Special equipment needed:
Popsicle mold
Popsicle sticks

Instructions

For the peach layer: Add the peaches, yogurt, extract, and sugar (or sweetener of choice) to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. Taste for sweetness and adjust as needed. Set aside.

For the cream layer: In a small bowl, stir together the 1 cup yogurt, coconut milk, vanilla, and sugar (or sweetener of choice) until smooth and well combined. The mixture should be just thinned out enough to pour into the popsicle molds. If too thick, add more coconut milk as needed until pourable. Taste for sweetness and adjust as needed.

Pour cream and peach mixture into the molds alternately, beginning with cream, followed by peach, then a little more cream. Freeze for 30 minutes. Insert popsicle sticks into the popsicles and return the mold to the freezer until firm, at least 2 hours. Enjoy.
