Recipe of The Week: Fresh Fruit Ice pops!
It’s getting colder outside. That’s ok, everyone can use a healthy, crunchy, sweet alternative for a dessert. We found this recipe by Debbie. Check out her page. She gives more details of the process. However, we made a small adjustment in the recipe. The point of the recipe is to use fresh fruit. Then we might as well use fresh fruit for the whole process. In the recipe we adjusted using apple juice to making your own mix of water and lemon. That simple, take a lemon cut it and squeeze the lemon juice into the water.
Ingredients:
- 2 Kiwis
- 1 lemon
- Bottle of Essentia water (filtered works too)
- 2 Peaches
- 1 cup Strawberries
- ½ cup Raspberries
- ½ cup Blueberries
Instructions:
- Peel and slice the kiwis and peaches into ¼” slices
- Slice the strawberries into thirds.
- Press the strawberry, kiwi and peach slices into the bottom of each mold. Use a popsicle stick to press them against the sides of the mold.
- Add blueberries and raspberries to fill the gaps.
- Add as much fruit as you can fit into the mold, continuing to press it against the sides.
- mix water with fresh squeezed lemon.
- Fill the molds with Fresh squeezed water and lemon leaving about ?” space at the top for the juice to expand when it freezes.
- Freeze the popsicles overnight.
- Run the molds under hot water to help the popsicles release.
