When summer rolls around I am all about no bake desserts. No turning on the oven for me when it's a hot day! That's where these refreshing mango popsicles come in. With just a few simple and fresh ingredients, you can easily whip up these easy mango popsicles!
With a combination of mango, greek yogurt, honey and lime, you will get the most refreshing treat!
Why you'll love this recipe!
- These creamy mango popsicles use basic ingredients, nothing fancy here!
- These are so much easier to make than ice cream!
- I like to switch it up by adding raspberries, coconut yogurt or Tajin seasoning.
- They're perfect for both adults and kids! A real crowd pleaser.
- The perfect refreshing treat for a hot summer day.
Ingredients Needed
- Mango Chunks: you'll want to use juicy, fresh mango here! I've bought it chopped to make my life a bit easier.
- Greek Yogurt: use your favorite brand of greek yogurt.
- Lime: a squeeze of lime juice is going to make this so refreshing!
- Honey: just a tablespoon of honey is going to lightly sweeten these homemade popsicles.
- Salt: I always add a pinch of salt, it will help enhance flavors.
- Vanilla Extract: a dash of vanilla extract is perfect here.
Substitutions & Variations
- Raspberry Sunset: I love getting a sunset ombre vibe by mixing some of the mango mixture with raspberries! Fill up the popsicle molds about half way, then blend the remaining popsicle mixture with a handful of raspberries. Pour into the molds so they're now half mango, half mango raspberry!
- Coconut: swap out regular greek yogurt for a coconut flavored one for all the tropical vibes!
- Tajin Seasoning: one of my favorite things to do with these mango ice pops is add a sprinkle of tajin seasoning! You can also buy the chile lime seasoning at trader joes.
- Honey: swap out honey for maple syrup if you're vegan.
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1: Place all of your ingredients in a large blender or food processor.
Step 2: Blend until completely smooth.
Step 3: Pour into your popsicle molds.
Step 4: Freeze for 6-8 hours, but preferably overnight. Enjoy!
Expert Tips & Tricks
- Make sure the mixture is completely smooth before pouring into your popsicle molds.
- I have only tested this with fresh fruit, not frozen mango.
- No molds? Use small paper cups or plastic cups and popsicle sticks!
- My popsicle mold has a holder for the stick. If yours doesn't, let the popsicle freeze for about an hour, then gently press the stick in.
- Some popsicle recipes use water, but to really get that creamy popsicle texture I recommend sticking to yogurt.
- My favorite popsicle variation is adding a sprinkle of Tajin seasoning to the popsicles just before freezing!
Frequently Asked Questions
I've tested both a stainless steel popsicle mold and a silicone mold, and I personally prefer the silicone popsicle mold. I found it gave a prettier popsicle and was easier to pop out!
The silicone molds let you easily pop out the popsicle, but for the stainless steel molds just hold one popsicle at a time under warm or room temperature running water for about 10 seconds. That should be enough to help loosen it and it should come right out.
