Seriously Strawberry Freezer Pops
Fresh stawberries make these pops the perfect summer treat.
Serves: Makes 6 pops
Ingredients
- 1 ½ tbsp superfine sugar
- 3 ½ tbsp water
- 1 â…“ cups strawberries, hulled
- juice of one orange (about â…“ cup)
- 1 ¼ cups strawberry yogurt
Directions
- Put the sugar and water in a saucepan and boil for about 3 minutes until syrupy. Set aside to cool.
- Quarter the strawberries and purée in a hand blender. Press through a sieve to remove the seeds.
- Combine the strawberry purée with the cooled syrup and orange juice and pour into six freezer-pop moulds until about a third full. Freeze until solid. When the first layer is set, pour in yogurt to a depth of 1 inch and freeze. Once this layer is frozen, pour in the purée mixture almost to the top, and insert a stick in each freezer pop. Freeze again.
- When ready to eat, run the mould under hot water for a few seconds to loosen the freezer pops.
Time saver
- The three-tiered version looks great, but opt for a single flavour tier if you need a speedy treat.
