Well here we are again, back with another yummy Fourth of July Recipe! You probably already know, but in case you don’t, we are sharing our Fourth of July Menu complete with Main Dishes and the All-American Burger, Salads with Seven Layer Salad in a jar, Sides and this easy 3 ingredient Patriotic Dip, Fruit Recipes and a Fruit Parfait with Creamy Lime Dressing and today is all about Cool Treats and these Apple Pie Pops!
These are a MUST make for anytime during the Summer and can be easily adapted to your favorite flavor…blueberry, cherry or strawberry possibly.
The combination of yogurt and pudding makes these Apple Pie Pops not only cool but creamy too!
There was a little hitch in making these though, apparently Apple Yogurt is not available. I’m not really sure why Yoplait or the other yogurt companies don’t make it, but I searched everywhere for it, and finally went online and discovered they don’t even make it. Crazy huh?
Well, anyway, I just had to make Apple Pie Pops, because what’s more American than Apple Pie, so I found a recipe for Apple Yogurt, and changed it up a bit to fit the Pops. And of course, a little added whipped topping and sprinkles make them a perfect for a Fourth of July Cool Treat!
I found all the ingredients and supplies I needed at Walmart, including the popsicle sticks, they are in the craft department.

I have seen Apple Turnover yogurt which is made under the Meijer brand label. It was quite good. I’m not sure if it is just on one are or not.
I meant in one area. I purchased mine at the Meijer store in Cascade, MI.
