These peaches and cream popsicles made with juicy, ripe peaches, yogurt, almond milk and almond extract make a wonderful treat on a hot summer day like today.
Peaches and Cream Popsicles
It’s in the nineties today, the kind of day where you want to either sit in front of the air conditioner and never leave the house, or swim in the pool all day – we opted for the latter.
I’ve been thinking about making a peach dessert combined with almond extract – because I love the smell of my peach-almond facial scrub, so I came up with this easy dessert using really ripe sweet peaches, unsweetened vanilla almond milk and almond extract – delish!
I used raw sugar to sweeten these, but you could sweeten them with stevia or whichever sweetener you prefer. My star shaped ice pop mold (affiliate link) which you can find on Amazon, it makes 4 oz popsicles, so depending on the size of your popsicle mold, you may get different amounts.
Peaches and Cream Popsicles
Ingredients
- 3 medium peaches
- 1/2 cup 2% Chobani Greek yogurt
- 1/3 cup sugar, I used raw, or your favorite sweetner
- 1/3 cup vanilla unsweetened almond milk
- 1/4 teaspoon pure almond extract
- 1/8 teaspoon fine salt
Instructions
- Halve and pit the peaches.
- Cut the peach halves into 1/4-inch dice until you have 1 cup.
- Place the diced peaches in a bowl; set aside.
- Cut the remaining peaches into rough 1-inch chunks and place in the blender.
- Add the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth, scrape down the sides of the blender as needed.
- Pour the mixture into the bowl with the diced peaches and mix to combine.
- Divide the mixture evenly into the popsicle molds, or disposable small plastic cups.
- Insert the sticks and freeze until solid, at least 5 to 6 hours.

So good! I had to make a lot of substitutions based on what was on hand. I doubled the recipe as my molds were for ten popsicles. I used fat-free Greek yogurt, whole milk, and less sugar (I halved it as I actually ran out, which is a first – LOL). The peaches are sweet enough where the missing sugar wasn’t noticed. I can’t wait to try the original recipe as written but very happy with what turned out. I love these flexible recipes.
What a delicious and refreshing, easy to make, treat!!!
Gina, could I use cornstarch or something else to thicken lactose-free milk for this recipe instead of using yogurt? My husband is lactose-intolerant but he loves peaches. Think these would make a great snack for him while he’s dieting.
Maybe try with coconut milk?
I just came across this recipe and I’ve always been hesitant to try homemade popsicles because I’m afraid of it sticking in the mold. How do you prevent that?

Oh wow I wish I had found this earlier this summer when our peach tree was in full production. I would have definitely made a lot of these. I guess I will be patient until next season… =D
Any idea the cup equivalent to 3 peaches is? I'm wanting to use my fresh strawberries and raspberries.
I would love to know how to make this with frozen peaches. Is it possible?
I did and it is great. I had to let the peaches thaw just a bit.
Could I use frozen peaches, & honey for sweetener?
Hi, I'm dairy free at the moment so can't add the yogurt – instead of just almond milk which i guess would be too runny do you think i could add chia seeds to thicken it up? thanks!
What about using mangos?
Hi from Australia, no peaches in season yet but about to try with fresh mango. Cannot wait.
Quick question–did you peel the peaches?
wonderful
Thank you for this incredible idea! Just finished making mine with nectarines and used Greek style goat yogurt. So good!!!!
I made these with my daughter this weekend, I measured the salt wrong so they came out a little salty. Would have to make them again and add the right amount of salt. Other than that they came out good. But now instead of eating a sweet treat is like eating peaches with salt 🙂
If we use the vanilla coconut milk which I find to be sweet, will we still need the sugar?
maybe not, I would taste it first
I don't have almond milk on hand so was going to use coconut water as a substitute…will report back. I'm guessing it will effevt the thickness..
it looks really good but isnt the purpose of drinking almond milk defeated when using yogurt?? I cant have dairy at all. Ugh I love yogurt too. I can try to make them without the yogurt.
I like how your used your face scrub for recipe inspiration! I guess anything can really inspire people in the kitchen. 🙂 Your almond extract idea makes me want to whip up a batch of popsicles with vanilla bean paste! Can't wait to try it out!
yum, yeah funny it smells so good. everytime I use it I say I gotta make something with these two ingredients, LOL
Love these! My daughter and I made them last night; yum!!
YUM!!!!!! I love peaches!!!! Thanks for your recipe!!!!!!!!!!!

Can I use light butter milk instead of almond milk?????
Sure, no rules!! 🙂
This looks absolutely wonderful! I normally used fat free Greek yogurt, but it seems like that should work fine. Thank you for posting this.
Oh my gosh! These look amazing!!
YUMMY!
I love the combo of almond and peach.
When my kids were little we had peaches and almond liqueur for dessert often…just enough to taste the almond flavour!
I be making this recipe as soon as I can get peaches!
Nice!
These look amazing! Where did you get the star-shaped popsicle molds?
Thank you!
You can find the star-shaped molds on amazon.com (Tovolo Star Ice Pop Mold). Hope this helps! Cheers!

Can't wait to try this! I'm going to try it in a plastic container since I don't have any popsicle molds. A question….would regular plain yogurt work instead of Greek? I don't like the taste of Greek. Thanks!
Your recipes are awesome!!!
Sure!
If you have an Instant Pot it is super easy to make your own greek yogurt and NO YUKKY TASTE! Just google or pinterest greek yogurt instant pot and you will see. Just milk and 2 T of yogurt and voila!!!
Your little girl is absolutely adorable! These beat anything you could buy at the store by a country mile.
Almond milk is something I don't buy and I don't want to buy it just for this one recipe. Is there something else that I can use in place of the almond milk?
If you buy it you can also go and make Gina's blueberry and oatmeal muffins that call for almond milk. They are DELICIOUS! That should help take care of the almond milk leftover 🙂
There's a shelf stable version you can buy – they now sell 8oz singles of almond milk. Or a 4 pack of 8oz containers. All shelf stable.
You could use any milk you have in your fridge.
Gina, is the sugar that you use, the sugar in the raw? Being a diabetic could you recommend another sweetener. Not a fan if the stevia. I could try it again. Did not like it in coffee. I enjoy nothing in my coffee now. Thanks Gina
You can use Agave. It's better for Diabetes. Cheers!

Question: If you used stevia, what would that reduce the sugar count by? I had gastric bypass, so I have to be very careful about how many grams of sugar. I try to keep it under ten. Thank you for this awesome looking recipe!
I like do do a blend, but I use liquid stevia so I would say add it to your taste.
Whoa! These look so good!!
Can't wait
Can't wait
Looks good, think I might have to try this 🙂
Used dates instead of sugar, nectarines, and 0% greek because it's all I had on hand. Awesome!!! Almond is my ABSOLUTE favorite, so next time I would probably increase that a bit but that's just my preference. Thanks for the great recipe Gina!
Dates as a sweetener is an awesome idea.
This recipe is right on time! I have some really ripe peaches just begging to be used.
I don't like the taste of almond milk, do you think using coconut milk will have same consistency?
Sure can!
these look delicious! I'm so glad to have found your blog and to start snooping through your recipes! Thanks for sharing.
These are fantastic, Gina! I love the flavor – so summery and creamy!
Delicious!! I love the combo of peaches and cream 🙂
So do I 🙂
Wow! These look delicious! Making them tonight..where did you get those molds?
Amazon, see the link above, I made them with wooden popsicle sticks rather than the sticks that come with the mold, just a personal preference.
Those look so delicious!
I really need to get my hand on some popsicle molds! These look delicious!
PINED!! Can't wait to try these….and WHERE did you get those Popsicle molds?! LOVE!
Amazon, I added the link above before the recipe.
buy popsicle sticks at craft store and use bathroom paper cups no clean up
Oh wow these sound so yummy and so much healthier than most frozen desserts I find myself eating during the summer. And you're daughter is absolutely adorable by the way, just beautiful! Enjoy these hot summer days together.

I will be making these with my granddaughter this weekend!They look and sound delish!! And what a cutie your daughter is. She is about the same age as my granddaughter 🙂
Thanks Debbie, I love this age 🙂
Anyone else have trouble with these being way too soft? I made them exactly as indicated and put them overnight in the a deep freezer. Not sure what might have gone wrong but they’re extremely soft, I’ll have to eat with a spoon rather than as a popsicle because they’re still slushy.
