Made with only 4 ingredients, these Strawberry Coconut Popsicles are my new favorite summer treat! Healthy, yet decadent enough to satisfy any sweet tooth!
It seems like popsicles are all the rage right now and I can see why. They’re easy to make, they taste amazing, and with temps rising to the 80s and 90s this week, a nice, cool treat is just what I need!
These Strawberry Coconut Popsicles are officially my go-to summer treat.
Full of greek yogurt and fresh fruit, the ingredient list is short, the popsicles are creamy dreamy, and you better believe they’re healthy enough to enjoy without the guilt!
If you’ve ever met me, you know I have a ridiculously large sweet tooth.
Candy? It’s own food group.
Brownies. I crave them daily.
Ice Cream? My very favorite thing in the whole wide world. Liiiike I would gladly skip dinner and eat ice cream instead.
That being said, I’m not 12 anymore, so I unfortunately can’t eat #allthethings whenever I want.
That’s where these Strawberry Coconut Popsicles come in. They’re still plenty sweet to satisfy my sweet tooth, but healthy enough that I don’t feel bad about having one every.single.night.
Nope. Not. At. All.
Since I’ve been eating these like candy 😉 it’s a good thing they’re super simple to make.
There are two layers to today’s recipe:
#1 The Coconut Layer
#2 The Strawberry Layer
Let’s start with the coconut. Simply place greek yogurt (vanilla or toasted coconut if you can find it), sweetened coconut flakes, and canned coconut milk into a food processor.
Pulse together until well combined and smooth-ish. It will be thick and chunky and that’s exactly what we want. It gives these popsicles ahhh-mazing texture.
Set this mixture aside while you make the strawberry layer.
Place strawberries and vanilla greek yogurt into the food processor and process until smooth. This layer will be much thinner than the coconut layer.
Then all that’s left is to pour the layers into your popsicle mold. This would be a really fun project with kids – let them “design” the popsicles however they want!
For me? I used about 2 tablespoons of strawberry, then I topped it with about 1 and 1/2 tablespoons of the coconut layer, and then finished off the popsicles with more of the strawberry mixture!
Let ’em freeze overnight and enjoy!
The coconut layer is subtly sweet, ultra creamy, and full of chewy texture from the coconut flakes which works a.m.a.z.i.n.g.l.y. with the fresh, tart, tastes like summer strawberry layer.
Perfectly sweet, perfectly creamy, perfectly healthy, these Strawberry Coconut Popsicles will be keeping me cool and my sweet tooth satisfied all summer long!
