Blackberry, Banana and Oat Breakfast Popsicles

These Blackberry, Banana and Oat Breakfast Popsicles are creamy frozen breakfast treats made from blended oats, almond milk, banana, yogurt, and fresh blackberries. They are lightly sweet, portable, and balanced enough to eat in the morning.

Breakfast can be tricky on warm days. I enjoy something cold and refreshing but I still want protein, fiber, and flavor that feels satisfying.

That is where these Blackberry, Banana and Oat Breakfast Popsicles fit in.

They are creamy from banana and yogurt, lightly sweet from honey or maple syrup, and balanced with oats that thicken and add a bit of natural body.

They look fun and colorful but the foundation is simple pantry ingredients.

The blender does the work and the freezer keeps them ready for whenever you want breakfast to be quick and easy.

You get real fruit flavor from the blackberries and the texture is smooth with some pleasant small bites of oats and fruit.

It is a playful way to enjoy a familiar breakfast combination in a new form that works especially well in warm weather or for people who like grab-and-go mornings.

Blackberries

Blackberries are the key flavor element here. They bring color, slight tartness, and freshness.

Blackberries are seasonal in late spring through early fall depending on the region, and their flavor can be bold and vivid.

If blackberries are not available, raspberries or blueberries work well. The popsicles change flavor easily depending on the berry used, allowing you to adapt the recipe based on what is in season or affordable.

Ingredients

• Almond milk. Gives a smooth base and keeps the mixture light. Any milk works, including dairy milk or oat milk if you want extra creaminess.
• Oats. Blend into the liquid to thicken the popsicles and add fiber. Choose gluten-free oats if required.
• Banana. Adds natural sweetness and helps create a creamy texture. A ripe banana works best because the flavor is stronger and sweeter.
• Honey or maple syrup. Optional sweetener that balances tart berries. Use whichever taste you prefer.
• Vanilla extract. Adds aroma and makes the flavor warmer and rounder.
• Yogurt. Provides creaminess and a slight tang that plays well with fruit. Use dairy-free yogurt to keep the recipe vegan.
• Blackberries. Provide bright color, small juicy bites, and fresh berry flavor. Substitute raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, or a mix of berries.
• Extra oats for topping. Sprinkled inside for texture and visual contrast.

Variations

• Use strawberries instead of blackberries for a softer berry flavor.
• Use blueberries for a sweeter and more subtle pop of fruit.
• Make it vegan by choosing dairy-free yogurt and maple syrup.
• Add a spoonful of nut butter to the oat mixture for extra richness.
• Add chia seeds to increase thickness and fiber.
• Use coconut milk for a richer popsicle that feels almost like ice cream.
• Blend the yogurt fully into the mixture instead of layering for a uniform texture.
• Add cocoa powder for a chocolate oat pop.
• Swap banana for mango for a tropical flavor variation.
• Stir granola into the mold before freezing for extra crunch.

Recipe Tips

• Choose a very ripe banana for the best sweetness.
• Blend the oats fully so the mixture is smooth.
• Fill the molds carefully to prevent air pockets.
• Freeze at least four hours and preferably overnight for best firmness.
• Rinse the molds under warm water before removing to release the popsicles smoothly.
