happy friday everyone! before we get into this recipe, i am going to answer the question everyone has been asking me on instagram.. "WHERE DID YOU GET THOSE POPSICLE MOLDS?!". it is nice to know i wasn't the only person who found it next to impossible to find a classic style popsicle maker. i literally went to every store in niagara that i thought would possibly carry them & no luck. every store had the same junky, child size, rainbow colour popsicle makers. it was quite frustrating! but then as a last resort i looked at good old amazon & success! i found these on amazon.ca here & i highly recommend them if you are looking for that classic look. now let's get into the reason we are all here.. the popsicles!
aftermaking those salted caramel popsicles on NOM this week, i wanted to make a healthy two tone flavour style popsicle. with peach season in bloom, i thought mixing matcha + peaches was a perfect pair! i used the aiya matcha cooking grade matcha powder & fresh peaches that i pureed. to keep it healthy, i used a raw sugar to sweetened them with a splash of vanilla. they are super easy to make & the perfect summer treat.

- 2 cups plain greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon aiya matcha powder (i use the cooking grade blend)
