Recipe Collection: Fruity Kefir Popsicles

**This post has been entered in Food on Fridays at Ann KroekerMouthwatering Mondays at A Southern Fairy Tale and Twister Tuesdays at GNOWFGLINS!**

I came up with this idea because I need to get more probiotic foods into my daughter, and we both have an aversion to the texture of yogurt and kefir normally.  So, why not make it into popsicles?  I believe this would also work as ice cream too, if you have an ice cream maker, but I haven’t tried that.  These popsicles are super nutritious and super yummy!

Ingredients:

1 qt. unsweetened kefir ( coconut milk or whole milk)

1/2 lb. mixed berries (strawberry, raspberry, blackberry, blueberry, elderberry…whatever you like)

2 tbsp. raw honey

6 egg yolks

Directions:

Mix all ingredients together in a blender.  Pour into popsicle molds and freeze.  Then enjoy!  Super easy!  You can leave out the honey if you want, it just adds a tiny bit of sweetness and extra nutrition.

    What a good idea! I’m not skilled in the art of ice cream or popsicle making, though, and am wondering about the eggs yolks – what do they add, exactly? Do you think they could be left out or are they vital?

    Thanks for sharing this @ FOF!

    Hi Jen,

    The egg yolks aren’t necessary, no. They add extra fat and nutrients, like choline. We’re trying to get more fat/nutrients into our diet, especially raw egg yolks. Raw egg yolks are great for you!

  3. Yumm! I make these in the summer time quite a bit, but have never added egg yolks. What a good idea!

    What happens to the active live cultures once they've been frozen and then eaten frozen? How do they "do their thing" in a frozen state? Thanks!!

Got something to say? Go for it!
