It is both delicious and refreshing to have a cold popsicle on a hot summer day, and in most families with children, quite a lot of them are consumed during the warm months. That’s why it’s also nice to make your own healthier versions, such as these healthy blueberry popsicles.
Homemade healthy popsicles
Our children love popsicles, as do most kids.
Buying them from the supermarket can be fine, but it’s a bit expensive in the long run, and you don’t always have control over what’s in them. They often contain a lot of sugar or other ingredients you might want to avoid.
Luckily, it’s easy to make your own delicious but healthy popsicles.
You can use fruit or berries, and here we’ve used skyr, but Greek yogurt would work too.
Our kids love these popsicles, and they can enjoy them without any unhealthy ingredients.
Ingredient notes
Blueberries – Regular fresh blueberries. You can also use frozen berries.
Skyr – We use skyr here, but you can also use Greek yogurt.
How to make healthy blueberry popsicles?
Making these delicious popsicles is really easy. First, blend the blueberries and skyr together. I use an immersion blender. Once blended, distribute the mixture into popsicle molds, and then put them in the freezer for at least 3 hours, depending on the size of the molds you’re using.
When the ice creams are frozen, they’re ready to eat.

Tips and tricks for the recipe
- We simply blend the blueberries in the skyr and pour it directly into the molds. We don’t mind if there are some pieces of skin, but if you prefer your popsicles completely smooth, you can strain the mixture before pouring it into the molds.
- These popsicles are fresh and slightly tangy, and we love that. If you want to add a touch of sweetness, you can add a spoonful of honey along with the other ingredients.
Serving suggestions
- Serve to your family on a hot summer day as a snack or dessert.
