Almond Milk Popsicles
Beat the heat with these Almond Milk Popsicles (also called yogurt popsicles)! This frozen yogurt popsicle recipe is made with almond milk, Greek yogurt, banana, almond butter and dipped in chocolate and chopped almonds.
These incredible healthy yogurt popsicles make a delicious summer treat that your whole family will love!
When I was growing up, we spent a lot of time on Balboa Island during the summer months, and we’d always get Balboa bars and frozen bananas. A Balboa bar is a wedge of vanilla ice cream on a stick, dipped in chocolate, then dipped in your favorite topping (nuts or sprinkles). These homemade popsicles are a perfect mix of a Balboa bar and frozen banana.
Yogurt Popsicle Recipe
Once you’ve had your first bite of these frozen yogurt popsicles, you will be completely hooked. If the popsicle mixture isn’t sweet enough for your taste, then you can add 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup (or honey)
- Milk: We use unsweetened almond milk for this recipe, but you can use another milk (coconut milk, hemp milk, etc) of your choice.
- Yogurt: Use a good unsweetened full fat Greek yogurt for this recipe. Vegans can use coconut yogurt or another vegan yogurt.
- Almond butter: We use almond butter, but you could also use creamy peanut butter if you like.
- Ripe bananas:
- Pure vanilla extract:
- Chocolate sauce:
- Nuts: We use roasted almonds but you could use roasted peanuts if you like.
- Sweetener (Optional): Add pure maple syrup or honey to sweeten.
How To Make Yogurt Popsicles
Making popsicles during the summer months is one of my favorite things to make! They’re quick and easy to make, then you just pop them in the freezer and forget about them. These yogurt popsicles come together in about 10 minutes, but then they’ll need to set in the freezer for 4-6 hours (overnight even better).
- Add the ingredients to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth, stopping to scrape the sides down with a spatula as needed.
- Divide the mixture into the popsicle molds, tapping gently to remove any air.
- Place the lid on the popsicle mold and insert the popsicle sticks.
- Freeze 4-6 hours or until completely frozen.
- Prepare chocolate sauce.
- Toast almonds and process in a food processor.
- Remove yogurt popsicles from molds.
- Dip frozen popsicles in chocolate sauce and then roll in roasted nuts.
- After the chocolate solidifies, store the dipped popsicles in freezer bags in the freezer.
Chocolate Sauce Recipe
This is a great chocolate sauce for ice cream and it’s made with just 2 ingredients. It really adds a nice touch to these Almond Milk Popsicles

How To Make Chocolate Sauce

Where did you get the mold?
Hi Katie – I bought them on Amazon. I’ve added a link…
These look delicious! I love the idea of putting chocolate and almonds over the pops. Thanks for sharing this great recipe with us!
Hi Melanie!! Thank you!! Everything is better with a little chocolate and nuts, right?!
These are pretty and tasty! Not too sweet, and the yogurt adds a nice tang. I made mine with crunchy peanut butter and rolled them in finely chopped walnuts; otherwise according to recipe.
A couple of notes: If you have only six popsicle molds, halve the recipe. And the chocolate hardens fast on the popsicle once dipped, so pause just briefly before rolling in nuts, or the nuts won’t stick.
Thank you for sharing this!
