Ingredients

For yoghurt icy poles

  • 2 cups Greek yoghurt
  • ⅓ cup maple syrup caster sugar can also be used
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract or paste
  • 5 passion fruits
  • 1 cup mixed berries fresh or frozen. Choose your favourite!

For the fruit icy poles

  • 4 cups chopped watermelon
  • 1 ½ cups mixed berries fresh or frozen. Choose your favourite!
  • 2 cups crushed pineapple

Instructions

For the yoghurt icy poles

  • Prepare some icy pole/popsicle moulds by setting them on the bench. Make sure that you have room in your freezer before you start!
  • Mix the yoghurt, sugar (or maple syrup) and vanilla together until the sugar has dissolved. Halve the mixture and add it to two separate bowls.
  • Add the passion fruit pulp to one bowl containing yoghurt mixture and stir to combine.
  • For the other half, puree the berries in a food processor. Add the berry mix into the other yoghurt bowl. Stir, but don’t mix completely to create a swirl effect.
  • Pour the separate bowls into different icy pole moulds and place into the freezer overnight, or until frozen.

For the fruit icy poles

  • Prepare some icy pole/popsicle moulds by setting them on the bench. Make sure that you have room in your freezer before you start!
  • Use a blender to blend all ingredients together until smooth. Pour into icy pole moulds and place into the freezer overnight, or until frozen.

Notes

While I have used mixed berries here, you can use any fruits you like! These icy poles are delicious with summer fruits like mango, pineapple and a little lime juice.
 
Keep them in the freezer for up to 3 months. They are perfect for kids parties and entertaining, as well as a refreshing treat on a hot day.
