Why it works: Yogurt and agave work together. They rank in the top 7% of all ingredient pairs, and 59 recipes mention both. Both carry isobutyraldehyde, which smells malty, green. The science ↓

Directions

Method written by CompKitchen from the ingredient list. Not the original author's method, not kitchen-tested.

  1. Put the chopped peaches, lemon juice, coconut milk or almond milk, Greek yogurt, and agave or honey into a blender.

  2. Blend until completely smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides once if needed.

  3. Pour the mixture into 10 popsicle molds, leaving a little space at the top for expansion.

  4. Place the lids on the molds and insert a popsicle stick into each one.

  5. Freeze upright for at least 4 hours [240 minutes] until the popsicles are firm.

  6. To unmold, run the outside of each mold under warm water for a few seconds, then gently pull the popsicles out.
