Pistachio and Greek yogurt ice pops or Mexican paletas

You can never go wrong with paletas or ice pops, especially during the hot summer months. They are such a huge crowdpleaser! I’ve shared other paleta recipes that I love, like these ones made with sweet condensed milk but I now found these Greek yogurt frozen pops that are crunchy and so refreshing!

Refreshing Pistachio and Greek Yogurt Paletas Recipe

 Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons agave or honey, or to taste
  • 2 drops green food coloring, optional
  • 1/3 cup of Wonderful Pistachios No Salt, finely chopped (plus more for crusting the paletas)

 

Directions:

1.       In a large bowl, whisk together the yogurt, milk, agave or honey and food coloring (if using) until smooth.

2.       Add the chopped Wonderful Pistachios and stir until incorporated.

3.       Pour the mixture into popsicle molds and freeze until it begins to set, about 1 hour. Then, insert the sticks and freeze again until solid, about 4 hours. (If using other types of molds, just follow the manufacturers instructions.)

4.       Optional: Once the paletas are frozen, spread some chopped pistachios on a plate, remove popsicles from mold and roll them in the pistachios.

5.       Keep them in the freezer for 4 hours or until ready to eat.
