Blackberry Breakfast Pops

Blackberry Frozen Yogurt & Granola Breakfast Pops

Perfect for those hot summer mornings!

Blackberry Breakfast Pops

These popsicles came about by accident, really. Not being one to refuse a reduced price bargain I found myself with a few punnets of blackberries in my shopping basket – best before that date. They were needing used up.

I sat there eating my lunch pondering what I could do with the blackberries and thought about making a blackberry frozen yogurt popsicle. I whizzed up the blackberries in my high speed blender with a banana, some low fat natural yogurt, and sweetened it with some maple syrup.

My popsicle mould only has four spaces, so there was a little bit of the blackberry mixture left over.

What to do with it?

Blackberry Breakfast Pops

There was a bag of Udi’s gluten free oats & wildflower honey granola sitting on my kitchen counter, unopened.

An idea popped into my head!

What if I sprinkled some of the lovely granola at the bottom of a plastic cup, poured the remaining mixture on top, and sprinkled with some more granola – would that work?

Udis Granola

It certainly does!

Oh my goodness gracious me these were rather lovely! The granola adds a nice oatmeal cookie flavour to the blackberry frozen yogurt, and as it’s sweetened naturally with only maple syrup one feels almost virtuous for eating them. The blackberry frozen yogurt turns the most gorgeous colour when it’s all blended up, and it tastes like summer.

Blackberry Popsicles

It also makes wicked blackberry frozen yogurt popsicles, as my children can attest!

It turns out, after checking the Internet, that this idea has been already done but I felt super clever in creating it. A great way to use up fruit that’s needing used up quickly!

Instructions 

  • Place the banana, blackberries, yogurt and maple syrup in a high powered blender and blend until thoroughly combined and deliciously purple.
  • Sprinkle 1 tbsp of granola into the bottom of six plastic cups (those ones used during kids birthday parties work well).
  • Divide the blackberry mixture in between each of the six cups and insert a wooden popsicle stick (or even a small teaspoon!) into each. The mixture should be thick enough to hold the stick/spoon upright. If not, use a bit of cling film to hold it in place.
  • Sprinkle a further tablespoonful of granola onto the top of each popsicle.
  • Freeze overnight, or for at least six hours. Allow to defrost for about five minutes before eating.

    I’ve got some ice lollies to post, but I am reluctant to do so after seeing these berry beauties. SO pretty! And pretty darn healthy too.

I would never have thought to try this, but I’m definitely going to go and pick some more to try it. The recipe includes a rose geranium leaf and that sounds fantastic! This blackberry bourbon smash from The Little Epicurean is right up my alley. Tart fruity berries with mint bourbon and other goodies. It is beautiful and purple, too! This blackberry and raspberry jam from Camilla ‘Queen of Jams’ over at FabFood4All is a must-try. Bintu from Recipes from a Pantry has a blackberry smoothie with Greek yogurt and honey that sounds lovely. Lancashire Food’s blackberry and apple geranium swirl also makes use of geranium to compliment the tart sweetness of blackberries. I must try this combination! Emily from A Mummy Too has these lovely blackberry and apple parcels that my little ones would adore. Maison Cupcake has an absolutely stunning chocolate blackberry Charlotte cake. And how amazing does this fig and blackberry crumble with oat and quinoa from Frangalis Kitchen sound? It’s gluten-free as well.
