You will need
Food processor - We really like this one from Kenwood. It's so easy-to-use and features a handy 1.4 litre bowl and multiple attachments for easy food prepping. You can get it at Amazon for £33.95.
Ice lolly moulds - This set of six is just what you need. It's eco-friendly and comes with a cleaning brush and folding funnel. You can get it at Amazon for £10.49.
Tips
The recipe makes about 6 lollies, depending on the size of your moulds
Use old yoghurt cartons with lolly sticks stuck into the middle of the yoghurt mix, for a DIY lolly mould.
If making these lollies for kids under 5, be sure to cut the blueberries in half, to reduce the risk of choking.

★★★★★ Rated 5 out of 5 stars.We made these yummy lollies in the summer and they went down a treat. Not only could we all join in to make them but they simply just tasted so much nice than the shop bought lollies as well as being much healthier and free of artificial colour and preservatives.

★★★★☆ Rated 4 out of 5 stars.I've made these with plain homemade yogurt and different combinations of fruit. The only reason I'm giving this recipe a 4 star rating is because of the sugar. Add a bit of vanilla and some cinnamon, and you can have a nice amount of sweetness with little or no sugar. You can also use ripe (or overripe) bananas to eliminate the need for added sugar. This is a great recipe for those rare hot summer days.
