Walnut Orange Blossom Date Greek Yogurt Pops

Walnut Orange Blossom Date Greek Yogurt Pops on sheet pan with whole walnuts and dates
Print Recipe

These pops are creamy from the yogurt, yet have texture from the walnuts and dates. The orange blossom water adds a hint of exotic flavor, with a touch of sweetness from the honey.

  • Category: Popsicle

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups (24 ounces) of plain 2% Greek yogurt
  • 1–1/2 tsp orange blossom water
  • 3 TBSP honey
  • 3/4 cup plump, pitted dates, chopped into small pieces (about 8–9 large dates)
  • 3/4 cup walnuts
  • Popsicle mold and sticks, or wax coated paper cups ( I used the Norpro 10-3 ounce mold)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Place walnuts on a sheet pan and bake in the oven until toasted, about 8-10 minutes.
  3. Allow walnuts to cool. Once cool, chop the walnuts into small pieces, almost finely chopped.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, mix the walnuts, yogurt, honey, orange blossom water and dates until well combined.
  5. With a teaspoon, evenly fill popsicle molds. Periodically tap mold on counter and use a butter knife to push yogurt mixture down into mold. The goal here is to get rid of the air pockets. If you have skinny molds like I do, this part can get a little messy.
  6. Freeze until solid, about 2 hours.

Notes

Run popsicle mold under hot water to remove yogurt pops.
