Yoghurt fruity icy poles

Recipe

Blend up any ripe soft fruit with some yoghurt and a sweetener and Tada!

Homemade icy poles are super easy once you have your moulds ready. Great for summer as a healthy, cheap, simple treat. The icy pole moulds are easy to find in supermarkets and specialty stores.

Once you start making these and get into a groove, you can come up with your own flavours and layer them as you like - leave a good 30 minutes in the freezer between each layer to firm up.

Makes 14 - 16 icy poles.

150g raspberries/blackberries/strawberries

1 - 2 tbsp honey/maple syrup - depends how tart the fruit is

600g yoghurt

optional -

½ cup water/rice milk/almond milk if mixture is too thick

Prepare berries - hull and wash.

Blend yoghurt and 1tbsp honey/maple syrup. Add the berries and half a banana if you have it to stabilise the mixture further. Blend until smooth. Add the water/rice milk/almond milk if you feel the mixture is too thick, you do not want it runny however, more like a thick milkshake. Check if it needs the extra tbsp of honey/maple syrup. Pour into 75ml capacity icy pole moulds and freeze overnight.

Sometimes I just blend whatever fruit is starting to turn and I keep it simple - two mangoes, some yoghurt, juice of 1 orange and some rice milk - no honey required as the mango and orange are so sweet.

Or - just banana, yoghurt, honey and almond milk.

Blend whichever ingredients you picture will make a great smoothie and freeze it!
