Ingredients
- Cheesecake Popsicle Filling:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups cottage cheese or Greek yogurt
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (optional)
- 6 tablespoons sugar-free granulated sweetener (allulose)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- Pecan Crumble Crust:
- ⅔ cup finely chopped pecans
- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil
- 3 teaspoons sugar-free granulated sweetener (allulose)
- Pinch of cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Make the Cheesecake Filling: Blend the cream cheese, cottage cheese (or Greek yogurt), protein powder (if using), sugar-free sweetener, vanilla extract, and salt in a blender or food processor until smooth and creamy.
- Prepare the Pecan Crumble: In a small bowl, mix chopped pecans, almond flour, melted butter or coconut oil, sugar-free sweetener, cinnamon, and salt until the mixture becomes crumbly.
- Assemble the Popsicles: Spoon the cheesecake-blueberry mixture into popsicle molds, filling them almost to the top, leaving about ½ inch of space. Add a layer of pecan crumble at the bottom of each mold and press gently with the back of a spoon.
- Freeze: Place the molds in the freezer for 4-6 hours or overnight until fully frozen.
- Release the Popsicles: Run warm water over the outside of the molds to loosen the popsicles. Gently pull them out and serve.
Notes
- Variations: Use raspberries, blackberries, or strawberries for different flavors. Swap pecans for almonds, walnuts, or a mix of nuts. Use stevia, monk fruit, or erythritol if preferred. For dairy-free, use vegan cream cheese and plant-based yogurt, and coconut oil for the crumble.
- Storage: Store popsicles in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2-3 weeks. Best enjoyed straight from the freezer. Allow to thaw for a minute or two if too hard to bite.
