Strawberry Pie Popsicle Recipe

Post by Michelle Sterling of Avery and Augustine

Here’s an easy popsicle recipe to make during the last days of summer.  You might already have all of the ingredients at home.

Here’s what you need to make Strawberry Pie Popsicles:

• Plain yogurt
• 1 jar of jam (smooth seems to work better than chunky)
• 12 graham cracker sheets
• 1 stick of butter
• 1/4 teaspoon of salt
• Popsicle molds and sticks

I used this recipe from Food52 to make a graham cracker crust.  It was simple — I used a blender to grind up 12 graham cracker sheets into fine crumbs.  In addition, I browned the butter on the stove before combining it with the graham cracker crumbs.  I then added 1/4 teaspoon of salt to the crust mixture.

Browning butter takes a little more time but is well worth it—browning intensifies the butter’s beautiful flavor and adds some nuttiness.  After your crust is baked, cool it and crumble it up into a bowl.  Spoon in a thin layer of jam, a thicker layer of yogurt and a thin layer of graham cracker crust crumble into each popsicle mold.  Repeat until you fill up each popsicle mold then insert a flat popsicle stick, freeze until firm, then enjoy!

May these last days of summer be slow and enjoyable for you and your family before the fall rush begins!
