EASY FROZEN YOGURT POPS

Steps:

• Open the yogurt containers. Spoon out all but 2 tablespoons of the yogurt from each container and place it in a medium bowl. Place 1 teaspoon granola, 5 blueberries, 1 halved raspberry and 1 halved blackberry in each container. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of yogurt on top of the berries. Repeat until you have a total of 3 layers each of yogurt, berries and granola in each container.
• Place an ice pop stick in the center of each yogurt container. Freeze until solid, at least 4 hours and preferably overnight.
• When ready to serve, remove a yogurt container from the freezer, dip the base into warm water and let sit for 15 to 20 seconds. Using the stick, gently pull and twist the yogurt pop out of the container. Serve immediately.

FROZEN YOGURT ICE POPS WITH LEMON CURD

Steps:

• Grate the zest of the lemons, then juice them. Place the zest in a bain-marie or double boiler. Pour the juice through a strainer into the bain-marie, add the sugar, then stir to combine. Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add to the bowl.
• In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and the additional yolk with a fork. Gently heat the butter, sugar and lemon mix in the bain-marie or double boiler until the butter has just melted then add the beaten eggs.
• Cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring with a silicone spatula until the mixture thickens and coats the spatula. A line drawn with a finger through the mixture on the spatula should remain visible for several seconds.
• Pour the lemon curd into a storage container and leave to cool in the refrigerator. Extra lemon curd can be served with berries, over yogurt, or on biscuits.
• Pour the cream into a small saucepan, then add the agar agar. Mix with a hand whisk and bring to a boil over medium-low heat. Cook for 1 minute, then remove from the heat. Pour the warm cream into a bowl, add the yogurt, and stir to combine.
• In a separate bowl, mix half the measured lemon curd with one-third of the cream and yogurt mixture.
• Pour a layer of the plain cream and yogurt mixture into the base of each ice-pop bar mold, followed by a layer of the lemon curd mixture. Continue alternating the two mixtures until the molds are almost filled. Ripple the remaining lemon curd through the surface of each ice pop. Insert a wooden ice-pop stick into each mold.
• Transfer the ice-pop molds to the freezer and chill for 6 hours or until frozen. To unmold, dip one ice-pop mold at a time into boiling water for 20 seconds, then remove the ice pop from the mold by gently pulling on the stick. Serve immediately.

POMEGRANATE-YOGURT ICE POPS

Steps:

• Pour equal amounts of pomegranate juice into ¼ cup (2 fl oz/ 50 ml) ice pop (ice lolly) molds, filling each one halfway. Freeze for 1 hour, or until the juice is beginning to harden but is not completely frozen.
• In a bowl, combine the yogurt or lebneh and honey. Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape the seeds into the bowl. Stir to combine.
• Remove the molds from the freezer, push in the sticks, and top up with the yogurt mixture. To get a marbled effect, stir the pomegranate and the yogurt together briefly. Finish with a sprinkling of seeds. Return to the freezer for several hours, or until completely frozen.
• To remove the ice pops from the molds, dip very briefly in hot water. Note: For a vegan-friendly option, replace the yogurt with unsweetened soy milk and the honey with agave.
