7 Popsicle Recipes with No Added Sugar
It’s getting hot outside so let’s enjoy some naturally sweet popsicles! I shared these recipes in my cookbook, The Grain-Free Snacker. They’re easy to make and very yummy! You can easily play around with any of the fruit purées. For example, you could switch the strawberry cantaloup popsicles for strawberry mango or peach and berries.
BASIC INSTRUCTIONS
In a medium-sized bowl, add all the ingredients. Mix until combined and then pour it into your popsicle molds (I used this popsicle mold).
Freeze the popsicles immediately.
When the popsicles are frozen, remove them by running warm water over the popsicle mold.
Pull the popsicle out of the mold.
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Popsicles
3 3⁄4 cups puréed ripe banana
1⁄2 cup, plus 2 tablespoons semi- sweet chocolate chips
1 1⁄4 teaspoons vanilla extract
Strawberry Cantaloupe Popsicles
2 cups puréed strawberries
2 cups puréed cantaloupe
Pour the puréed strawberries and cantaloupe into the popsicle molds in layers, alternating the flavors.
Cantaloupe Popsicles (Or any fruit purée)
4 cups, plus 6 tablespoons puréed cantaloupe (or preferred fruit)
Almond Butter Banana Swirl Popsicles
3⁄4 cups puréed ripe banana
1⁄2 cup, plus 2 tablespoons almond butter
Lightly swirl both ingredients and then pour into your popsicle molds.
Strawberry Cream Popsicles
3 cups, plus 2 tablespoons coconut cream*
3 teaspoons raw apple cider vinegar
1 1⁄4 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 1⁄4 cups puréed strawberries
In a medium-sized bowl, add the coconut cream, raw apple cider vinegar and vanilla. Mix until combined. Then add the strawberry purée, lightly swirl them and pour the mixture into your popsicle molds.
Note: To make coconut cream, place a can of coconut milk in your fridge. The next day, scoop out the cream that has risen to the top, and you have coconut cream.
3-Colour Popsicles
2 1⁄2 cups puréed ripe banana
1 cup puréed cantaloupe
3⁄4 cup puréed strawberry
Pour the puréed strawberries into the bottom of a popsicle mold.
Pour the cantaloupe next, and then top it off with the banana.
Note: You could make this into a triple berry popsicle. One layer is blueberries, another raspberries and another strawberries.
Strawberry Banana Popsicles
3 3⁄4 cups puréed banana
1⁄2 cup, plus 2 tablespoons puréed strawberries
Lightly swirl both ingredients and then pour into your popsicle molds.
