Ingredients
  

Cherry Compote

  • 2 cups Bing cherries washed, pitted and cut in half
  • 2 tablespoon Honey or agave
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoon Lemon juice

Coconut Yogurt

  • 2 cups Coconut yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Cherry Compote

  • Wash, pit and cut cherries in half. Place inside a medium saucepan. Add honey, lemon zest and lemon juice. Cook for 5-7 minutes until juices begin to release and cherries become slightly wilted. Set aside and cool completely.
  • Add cooled cherry mixture to food processor. Pulse a couple times to break up the cherries. Blend mixture until almost pureed but still have some chunks of cherries.

Coconut Yogurt

  • Scoop yogurt into bowl. Add vanilla extract and whisk together. Gently fold in pureed cherry mixture, making sure to leave streaks of cherries to create that swirly tie-dye look for the popsicles.
  • Spoon mixture into popsicle mold. Make sure to leave at least ¼" space at the top to allow the liquid to expand. If your popsicle molds have slots for sticks, you can insert them before freezing. If not, freeze for 2 hours and then insert popsicle stick in the center of each one. Freeze for 6-8 hours or overnight.

Notes

*Yield will vary depending on the size of your popsicle molds.
