5. Freeze and enjoy!

Brianne’s pro tips and FAQs

How long does it take to freeze yogurt pops?

The hardest part will be waiting for them to freeze. While the time will vary slightly, you’ll likely need to give them at least 4-6 hours to freeze completely so you can remove them from the molds. A great option is to make them in the morning to enjoy at night. Or make them the day before you plan to eat them. They will also stay god in the freezer for a few weeks.

Can you freeze Greek yogurt and eat it like ice cream?

If you simply freeze Greek yogurt in the freezer, it will be solid, not scoopable like ice cream. That’s why these Greek yogurt popsicles are ideal. They freeze solid into a pop, and you can lick or bite them right off the stick.

Is frozen Greek yogurt healthy?

Greek yogurt retains all of its nutritional value when frozen. So you still get all of the protein and calcium and other benefits of Greek yogurt. It also does not kill the active yogurt cultures. They actually go into a dormant state and then are reactivated from the warmth of your body when you eat them. So you can definitely enjoy Greek yogurt popsicles as a frozen treat.

Are these popsicles gluten free?

Yes, since there is no graham cracker crust like traditional strawberry cheesecake, these pops are gluten free!

What is the best popsicle mold?

While there are many options out there that are all equally functional, I love this Norpro Ice Pop Maker. The main reason is just that I love the traditional shape. Plus you use popsicle sticks that you insert individually, and there is a lid that holds the sticks into the right position. I have a mold with plastic sticks, and some of those holders have broken. So then if I want to use wooden popsicle sticks, they may move out of position and be off-centered and crooked.
