Honey roasted fig and goat cheese popsicles
yields: 10 popsicles
Ingredients
- 10 medium-large black mission figs, sliced in half lengthwise
- 4-½ tablespoons honey, divided
- 2-½ ounces soft goat cheese, about ¼ cup
- 2 cups non-fat plain greek yogurt
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the broiler.
- Lay the sliced figs cut side up on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle 1-½ tablespoons of the honey over the figs.
- Broil the figs for 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk the goat cheese, remaining 3 tablespoons of honey, and greek yogurt in a medium bowl until completely smooth.
- When the figs are done, purée them in a food processor or blender until smooth.
- Using a funnel or a measuring cup with a pour spout, fill each popsicle mold just under halfway with the yogurt mixture.
- Divide the fig purée among the popsicle molds. Optional: use a chopstick or the back of a fork to swirl the fig a bit with the yogurt.
- Top each popsicle mold with yogurt, until almost full.
- Place the lid over the mold and insert your popsicle sticks as straight at possible.
- Freeze for 4-6 hours, or until frozen solid. For best results, freeze over night.
- To help remove your popsicles from the mold, fill a large bowl with warm water and briefly dunk the bottom part of the mold in the bowl.
