Peaches and Cream Popsicle Ingredients
You only need a few ingredients for these deliciously refreshing peaches and cream popsicles.
Simple Popsicle Ingredients
- Fresh peaches (or canned peaches will do in a pinch)
- Banana for sweetness
- Plain Greek yogurt with high protein count
- Splash of milk of choice if necessary
- Optional – Ground cinnamon
- Optional – maple syrup, agave, or monk fruit sweetener
Easy Popsicle Supplies
- Vitamix Blender
- Silicone popsicle molds {this one comes with a funnel and sticks}
- Plastic Reusable Sticks or Wood popsicle sticks
- Quarter sheet baking pan
- 1 cup liquid measuring cup with pour spout or small funnel
- Plastic Popsicle Serving Bags – Optional for safer single servings
Blend and Freeze Peach Popsicles
Toss all the ingredients into the blender and add just enough milk to allow a thorough blending. Especially if using frozen bananas. Test the creamy peach smoothie and add sweetener if desired.
If using canned peaches, you can use the syrup as your liquid which will sweeten at the same time. The downside is it's high in sugar, so if you're trying to cut down on refined sugar I'd recommend using fresh peaches and trying a monk fruit sweetener or some pure maple syrup.

Once your smoothie liquid is ready, place Silicone popsicle mold on a Quarter sheet baking pan and fill each cavity with a funnel or measuring cup with pour spout. The baking pan is key as it prevents spilling as you move mold to the freezer. If there's room slide the whole sheet into the freezer. If not, carefully move filled mold by the center divider and place on a flat surface.
Remove Peach Popsicles from Mold
Once you've allowed your peaches and cream popsicles to freeze for 3-5 hours {overnight is preferable} they come easily out of the silicone mold. I'll never use another hard plastic mold again! Just set them out on the counter for 5 minutes or so and then push from the bottom to release each popsicle.
If you're having trouble getting the popsicles to release, you can run the bottom of the mold under warm water. But as long as you wait the full 5-7 minutes they should slide out without issue every time.
Serve Peaches and Cream Popsicles
Once the peach popsicles are removed from the mold, it's important to either: serve them immediately, OR get them into a freezer bag for storage.
Individual Plastic Popsicle Serving Bags are perfect for serving at a birthday party or any warm weather gathering!
Make 'em Fancy
You can even add a simple ribbon to each stick to dress them up for a “Sweet Little Peach” baby shower or summer tea party. The creamy fruity combination is so refreshing in hot weather.
This homemade peaches and cream popsicle recipe is a real life-saver. The kids feel like they're getting a treat and I'm happy that it has a little protein. It's a total win-win and so easy to make. I hope your family loves them as much as mine do.
