Wholesome Ingredients for These Blueberry Yogurt Pops
Let’s take a closer look at the powerhouse ingredients in this delicious frozen treat and why they’re so good for you:
- Greek Yogurt: The base of these pops, Greek yogurt adds a creamy texture and a hefty dose of protein. For a lighter option, you can use low-fat or non-fat Greek yogurt. Need a vegan swap? Coconut yogurt works beautifully for a dairy-free option.
- Fresh Blueberries: Loaded with antioxidants and vitamin C, blueberries add vibrant color, natural sweetness, and a burst of fresh flavor. Frozen blueberries also work well when fresh ones aren’t in season.
- Honey: Used to lightly sweeten these pops, honey balances out the tanginess of the yogurt. If you’re avoiding honey, swap it out for maple syrup or a keto-friendly sweetener like stevia or monk fruit.

Our Team’s Tips for the Best Blueberry Yogurt Pops
- Use fresh, ripe blueberries: Fresh, in-season berries will yield the most vibrant color and sweetest flavor.
- Don’t skimp on blending: Make sure the mixture is silky smooth to avoid any icy chunks in your pops.
- Invest in quality molds: Silicone molds are our favorite—they make it easy to remove the pops without breaking them.
- Freeze flat: Lay your molds on a flat surface in the freezer to ensure the pops freeze evenly and don’t tilt.
- Storage: Once frozen, remove the pops from their molds and store them individually in freezer-safe bags to preserve freshness.
Blueberry Yogurt Pops FAQs
Can I use frozen blueberries instead of fresh?
Yes! Frozen blueberries work great. Just thaw them slightly before blending to avoid clumping.
How long do these homemade yogurt pops last in the freezer?
Stored in an airtight container or freezer bag, they’ll stay fresh for up to two months.
Are these blueberry yogurt pops keto-friendly?
As-is, they’re not keto-friendly due to the honey, but swapping in a keto-approved sweetener makes them suitable for a low-carb diet.
Can I make these pops sugar-free?
Yes! Replace the honey with a sugar-free alternative like stevia or erythritol for a naturally sweet, low-sugar option.

We recommend silicone molds for easy removal, but small paper cups with wooden sticks are an excellent budget-friendly option.
