If it is something like a peach or a nectarine, you will probably want to peel it. If it is something like a blackberry, not so much.
Either way, chop it up, and add it to some plain yogurt. Whole milk yogurt would be great; low-fat is also great. Non-fat yogurt is generally not something you find in my refrigerator (unless it’s Greek or Icelandic, which isn’t really what you want here) but I’m sure if you’re the kind of person who likes non-fat yogurt, then it will serve just fine in this preparation.
Squeeze in a little lemon juice, drizzle in a few tablespoons of honey, and add a pinch of salt (everything needs a pinch of salt). Taste to make sure you’ve got the right sweet/tart ratio, and pour into your popsicle molds.
You know what also works here? Those tall shooters that are sold as vodka glasses. Also, smallish paper or plastic cups. You just need popsicle sticks, then. Or whatever is lying around. (The 4th popsicle stick here comes from a novelty ice cube tray, because the last one that came with this kit was still in use.)
Next popsicle project: kulfis, which are a traditional Indian dessert, flavored with cardamom, saffron, and pistachios. (Thanks, P., for the idea!)
Nectarine PopsiclesMakes more than 4 1 c plain yogurt
1 c diced nectarines (or, you know, whatever)
1 Tbsp lemon juice
2-4 Tbsp honey, depending on your taste and the sweetness of the fruit
a pinch of salt Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Check for sweetness. Pour into your popsicle molds and freeze. If you are using cups and popsicle sticks, freezer for a half an hour, then put the popsicle sticks into the cups and put back in the freezer until they’re solid.
