Easy Frozen Fruit Pops

Easy Frozen Fruit Pops

Charleston is hot AF. And I’m not talking about how it’s “hot” as in it’s the best city in America. I mean, it’s seriously HOT, as in the temperature. People warned me, but I didn’t listen. Or maybe I didn’t care because I was too distracted by the palm trees, beaches, and some of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Don’t get me wrong, I’d gladly trade these hot summer days for my Chicago polar vortexes. But this city is steamy in the summer, and I’m on my fourth bar of natural deodorant to prove it (if you have a recommendation for a brand that actually works well in swamp-ass heat, please share).

So I was beyond excited when my friend Christine Chitnis sent me a copy of her new book, Icy Creamy Healthy Sweet. It has 75 recipes for dairy-free ice cream, ice pops, frozen yogurt, granitas, slushies, and shakes. Basically 75 recipes for super-cold things. And all I want are cold things right now. 

What I love about these recipes is that they’re crazy simple to make, and you’ll most likely have all the ingredients on hand – lots of fruit, coconut milk, and even veggies. And they’re all naturally sweetened! Christine only uses honey and maple syrup. I got so excited about the recipes that I actually broke my no-new-kitchen-gadgets rule and bought a popsicle mold (I’ve secretly always wanted one anyway). 

Here’s to cool pops and hot summers…I wouldn’t want it any other way. Also, here’s to my baby Sid for being the best damn hand model of all time. He amazes me every single day with some new skill. 

Kid-desserts

{ Frozen Fruit Pops } 
from Icy Creamy Healthy Sweet  
Makes 10 pops
*In Christine’s original recipe she used kiwi, peach, raspberries, and blueberries – I used the fruit I had on hand. 

3 cups unsweetened coconut water (I used coconut water with pulp for extra texture)
1 peach
Handful cheeries, pit removed
1/2 cup blueberries

Pour enough water into each popsicle mold to fill it halfway. Drop fruit into each pop mold. Use more coconut water if needed to fill to the top, but the fruit should do the trick. Insert sticks carefully, make sure not to smash the fruit. Freeze for at least 3-4 hours until hardened. 

When you’re ready to eat, pull out the tray and run it under warm water to loosen the popsicles. 

 
More cool treats, OPP-style: Chocolate Crispy Ice Cream Sandwiches, Roasted Grapefruit With Blueberries + Ice Cream, and Chocolate Chunk Ice Cream Sandwiches.

    Hold the phone! You have a no-new-kitchen-gadget rule??? What about a julienne peeler, is that considered a gadget? I just feel like to make all plant based foods, sometimes you “need” the gadget to make puree, or thin strips of veggie noodles… maybe I’m hung-up on veggie noddles haha.

    Can’t what for your book to come out!

    The ice pops look good, but those chubby little baby hands look DELICIOUS! (heart-eyes emoji x 3)
