Have you ever just wanted to have your cake and eat it too? Like, maybe for breakfast? You can do just that with these sweet milk & cereal breakfast pops. They’re a fun new grab and go breakfast made with Greek yogurt, flavored milk, cereal, and banana. Now when they ask for ice cream for breakfast- you can say yes!

I tend to be a rebellious, fat kid at heart so I jump at the chance to go against the grain and swap out boring, old avocado toast or overnight oats for a sweet morning treat.

Like the last week of school last year when I made pudding pops and served them to my kids for breakfast one morning.

Hey, they were sugar free and were mostly milk. That’s healthy, right?

My kids sure thought the day was off to a deliciously awesome start.

Obviously we can’t eat like that every morning though so our milk & cereal breakfast popsicles are made of sturdier stuff that’s much better for developing minds.

Ingredients Needed

You only need a few ingredients to make a batch of milk and cereal breakfast pops.

To make the you’ll need:

Banana – You’ll need one, large ripe banana for this recipe. It’s perfect for using up bananas that you wouldn’t want to eat themselves since they might be a bit too mushy, but otherwise completely fine.
Yogurt – Specifically Greek yogurt is needed for this recipe. It’s healthier and firmer with less sugar than it’s American counterpart. It freezes better, but still gives a delicious creamy texture to these popsicles without adding any unnecessary extra sugar to the mix.
Milk – These breakfast popsicles need strawberry milk. You can use any brand.
Cereal – A 1/2 cup of dry fruity pebbles cereal if needed, and you can use any brand you would regularly enjoy.

How To Make

Making these yogurt breakfast popsicles is both quick and easy.

Seriously, very little effort required.

Start by adding the peeled banana to the bowl of a stand mixer.

Mix it until smooth and creamy.

You could also use a large mixing bowl and a hand mixer, if that’s easier.

Add both the Greek yogurt and flavored milk to the mixing bowl.

Mix together until everything’s evenly incorporated and the mixture’s smooth.

Remove the mixing bowl from the stand.

Add the dry cereal to the bowl.

Using a spatula, fold the cereal into the creamy yogurt until evenly combined.

Do not use the mixer, or even a hand mixer, for this step since it will crush up the cereal.

Transfer the mixture to popsicle molds, filling each to their designated fill line.

Add the popsicle sticks and the lids to the molds- in whichever order your set up requires.

Freeze these milk and cereal breakfast pops for 8 hours, or at least until frozen solid.

When ready to enjoy them, remove the breakfast popsicles from the freezer.

Run warm water over the base of the molds for a few seconds, just long enough to release the popsicles.

Enjoy!

Storing

Once released from their molds, you can store these milk and cereal breakfast pops in a ziplocking freezer bag.

They’ll keep in the freezer up to 3 months.

What Cereal Can I Use In Yogurt Breakfast Popsicles?

If Fruity Pebbles aren’t your thing, you can very easily switch the cereal out for one of your favs.

We love using:

Honey nut cheerios
Captain crunch
Trix
Lucky Charms

If you can picture it tasting good with strawberry milk, it will be delicious in these breakfast yogurt popsicles.

Can I Use Chocolate Milk?

You can absolutely swap the strawberry milk for chocolate if that’s more to your liking.

There are so many possibilities with this!

I personally like peanut butter Captain Crunch- it’s super good. I also have the taste buds of a ten year old.

Other chocolate friendly options include:

Chocolate pebbles
Reese’s puffs
Cookie Crisp
Cinnamon toast crunch

The possibilities are pretty much endless, and totally up to your taste buds.

Get creative and make these breakfast popsicles your own!
