Stack of yoghurt lollies with bowl of fruit at the side

Yoghurt fruit ice lollies

80,000 tonnes of yoghurt is wasted in the UK each year, this is a tragedy, particularly when you think about how many of these delicious ice lollies we could make with it. These lollies are a great way to save yoghurt and fruit for a later date.

Ingredients: (Makes 6 depending on size of moulds)
•    500 grams yogurt (whichever yogurt you have available, plant-based or dairy both work well)
•    a handful of fresh fruit (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries and thin banana slices work well)
•    a splodge of honey, date syrup or jam
 

Method:
1.    Pour your favourite yogurt into a big bowl.
2.    Swirl in the fruit and a splodge of honey, date syrup or jam, basically whatever you have knocking about in your cupboard.
3.    Pour into ice lolly moulds and freeze for at least 2 hours, or till frozen solid. Run under warm water to help you ease the lolly from the mould. Delicious on a hot day.
 

#FoodSavvy tip: You don't have to go out and buy new lolly moulds when you can use old yoghurt pots. Maybe not the big ones that you would use for the ingredients for this (unless you're really hungry), but the little ones will work a treat. You could use an ice cube tray as an alternative for a mini treat.
