Creamy Coconut Almond Breakfast Pops.

{This post is sponsored by Blue Diamond Almond Breeze Almondmilk! I’ve used their Almondmilk Coconutmilk Blend to create these simple and DELICIOUS breakfast pops. They are such a fun and easy way to make sure you have a healthy breakfast even while on the go!}

Fun, fun, FUN things to chat about today!

First and most obvious are these Coconut Almond Breakfast Pops! How fun and cute are they? I mean, ice pops for breakfast? Well, OK! Who can argue with that? Asher pretty much flipped over these and she didn’t even know that they were supposed to be breakfast pops! She just loved the creamy texture, fruity flavors and the crunch from that granola. In her long, slow and exaggerated words, “soooo gooood”.

SO, I’m really excited to share with you that Almond Breeze is the official sponsor of the USA Volleyball Team. I’ve teamed up with them to bring you these healthy breakfast pops that will help you and your family “Serve Up Your Best” all summer long… Ok and then even into the school year, because how amazing would these be for a quick back to school breakfast when you’re running late (Mom). Or maybe even better as an easy after school snack. Totally stocking up on these before school starts so Asher can come over after school and actually have something healthy…as opposed to like, cookie dough…oops.

When I was thinking up a recipe that would be healthy and energizing for these athletes, I immediately thought of something with protein, fruits and healthy carbs. Seeing as most of us are almost always on the go, I figured it would be fun to turn some ice pops into a healthy and complete morning breakfast!

Fun? yes!

Pretty? yes!

Delicious? Yes, yes, YES! 🙂

Don’t you just love all my enthusiasm? Hehe! It’s summer, it’s got me wrapped up in a ball of energy… ok and all those berries just make me smile.

Here’s the deal, these pops are beyond easy. Possibly one of my easiest recipes of the summer! You just need four ingredients: plain Greek yogurt, Almondmilk Coconutmilk Blend, fresh berries or chopped stone fruits, maple syrup or honey and granola. Simple as that!

To get a super creamy ice pop, I prefer using full fat plain Greek yogurt. You can also use fat-free or two percent, but you’ll get an icier pop as opposed to a nice creamy popsicle by using the full fat. For my berries, I used: strawberries, blueberries, and fresh cherries. Please use what ever combo of fruit you love. Pretty much any fruit will work, all berries, all stone fruits (chop them if they are big), pineapple, banana, mango… oh and chopped melon (cantaloupe, watermelon, etc) would be delish too! Lastly, for the granola, I gave you guys a super quick homemade granola recipe that I highly recommend trying, but if time is short, store-bought granola works great! Just make sure it’s not loaded with sugars.

And that’s it! I really like using the Almondmilk Coconutmilk Blend, it adds such a yummy, creamy coconut flavor, which you all know I LOVE. But really, you can use any other Almond Breeze flavors as well. The Hint of Honey, Vanilla flavor would be especially delish! 🙂

OKok! So for the final fun part of this post… I know, I know, so many fun things today!
