Ingredients

1 cup whole milk
1 cup cottage cheese
1 ½ cups wild blueberries
3 tbsp raw honey
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 tbsp lemon juice
pinch of salt
⅛ tsp xanthan gum (optional but this ingredient makes the popsicles less icy)

Instructions

Add all ingredients to a blender and blend well. If needed, pause halfway through to scrape down the sides of the blender for a smooth and even consistency.
Pour the blended mixture into popsicle molds.
Place the molds in the freezer and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until fully solid.
Remove the popsicles from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes before enjoying.

Notes

For an extra creamy texture, blend the ingredients for a few extra seconds pausing to scrape down the sides half way through if necessary.

Don't skip the lemon juice; it helps enhance the flavor of the blueberries and adds brightness to the popsicles.

I used a silicone popsicle mold with 10 cavities, each holding 3.2 ounces of liquid. If your molds are a different size, you may have some leftover mixture, which you can enjoy as a smoothie!

It's best to freeze the popsicles for at least 4 hours or until completely solid. However, overnight freezing is recommended for the best results.
