Keto Strawberry Cream Popsicles - A Fresh, Low-Carb Summer Treat

Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings: 8 servings

Ingredients
  

  • Strawberries (fresh or frozen, about 2 cups hulled)
  • Heavy cream (1 cup)
  • Full-fat Greek yogurt (plain, 3/4 cup)
  • Keto-friendly sweetener (1/3–1/2 cup; allulose, erythritol, or monk fruit blend)
  • Vanilla extract (1 teaspoon)
  • Lemon juice (1 tablespoon, fresh)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional: a few extra diced strawberries for texture

Method
 

  1. Prep the berries: Hull and slice the strawberries. If using frozen, let them thaw slightly so they blend easily.
  2. Blend the base: In a blender, add strawberries, heavy cream, Greek yogurt, sweetener, vanilla, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Blend until silky smooth, 30–60 seconds. Taste and adjust sweetness or lemon if needed.
  3. Check the sweetness cold: Pops taste less sweet when frozen. If it’s only mildly sweet at room temp, add another tablespoon or two of sweetener to compensate.
  4. Add texture (optional): Stir in a handful of finely diced strawberries for little fruit bits in each bite.
  5. Fill the molds: Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a tiny bit of headspace for expansion. Insert sticks.
  6. Freeze: Freeze for at least 5–6 hours, preferably overnight, until fully set.
  7. Unmold: Run warm water over the outside of the molds for 10–20 seconds, then gently pull to release.
  8. Serve: Enjoy straight away, or place on a parchment-lined tray in the freezer for 10 minutes to firm up if they softened during unmolding.
