more breakfast popsicles

This morning we made some yummy yogurt popsicles for breakfast. We've had very few mornings this summer that we've woken up to heat, but this morning was warm and the boys appreciated the cool breakfast! I used the zoku today so needed to cut the fruit pretty thin and used a chopstick to slide the pieces down into the forms and freeze up against the metal sides. I then made the strawberry yogurt pour-able by mixing in some milk and I added a bit of local honey too. In ten minutes, we had popsicles ready to eat!

I could have easily made these the night before in traditional popsicle forms and had them ready for the morning.

 

   
When I took them out, we used a pastry brush to spread a little honey on top and then dipped them in granola.

Another big breakfast hit around here!

Hi Nicole-
I make them a little different every time and don't use a recipe so I'm sorry, I know that's not much help! Everyone has different sizes of Popsicle molds and different consistencies of yogurt so you kind of just have to play with it. I'm going to guess that for four zoku Popsicles, I used about 2 cups of yogurt, thinned with just enough milk so that I could pour it into the molds. I added about a tablespoon of honey mixed into e 2 cups of yogurt or you could use agave syrup or no sweetener at all. I used about a handful of blueberries, one kiwi sliced, half a peach and a couple of sliced strawberries- with the fruit being divided up between the Popsicles. You can use whatever fruit you like! Hope this helps!

This was really one of the nicest ideas I have ever seen. Did you come up with this idea yourself? Looks soo good - and for those who aren't really breakfast fans it looks really great ;-)
