Ingredients
Apricot layer50g1/4 cup granulated sugar
60ml1/4 cup water
300g10oz or 5 large apricots, seeds removed, chopped
beans from 1 vanilla pod
15ml1 tablespoon lemon juice
Yogurt layer360g1 1/2 cups plain greek yogurt (I use Fage 5%)
80ml1/3 cup full fat milk
160ml2/3 cup elderflower syrup
1/2tablespoonhoneyor more to taste
Instructions
First make the apricot layer:Put sugar and water in a medium saucepan (I use non-reactive enamel cookware) and cook over medium heat, until sugar is dissolved and mixture boiling (about 10 min). Stir in chopped apricots and vanilla. Cook until they’re soft and falling apart (about 10 min). Cool mixture to lukewarm, then stir in lemon juice. Blend apricots with an immersion blender, until you get a somewhat smooth puree. Set aside.
Make the yogurt layer: Combine yogurt, milk, elderflower syrup and honey in a blender (or use an immersion blender) and blend until smooth. Taste and sweeten if needed, otherwise set aside.
Assemble popsicles:Divide the yogurt mixture between molds, filling each mold about 1/3 to 1/2. Top each one with an apricot layer. Put in the popsicle sticks and lightly swirl around each one to create a marbled effect. Freeze popsicles until solid (at least 6 hours, ideally freeze overnight).
