Title: Coconut Fruit Popsicles
Categories: Desserts, Frozen
Yield: 8 Popsicles
3 c Fresh ripe sweet fruit
- (raspberries, blueberries,
- peaches, or strawberries);
- peeled & chopped
2/3 c Sugar -OR-
4 tb Agave nectar -OR-
Stevia; equivalent amount
1/2 c Coconut milk;
- light or full-fat
Preparation time: 30 minutes
Freeze time: 3 hours
Combine all ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth. If the
fruit has seeds or a lot of fiber (e.g. raspberries or mangos),
strain through a fine mesh sieve and discard the solids. Fill
popsicle molds with the mixture and freeze at least 3 hours before
eating. Store in the freezer for up to 1 week.
Tips:
Make sure the fruit you use is ripe, sweet, and juicy. It may be
necessary to let it sit out on the counter for a couple of day to
reach prime ripeness. Patience pays!
You can use frozen fruit in these popsicles, but the taste and
texture lose a lot in the process, mainly because you're taking
something frozen, and freezing it again.
We made blueberry-raspberry, mango, and strawberry-banana popsicles.
Other flavor combinations we'd like to try are mango-peach,
coconut-lime (with coconut juice, lime juice, and lime zest), and
pineapple.
3 Flavors:
Divide the recipe into 3 parts, and make 3 different flavors. It is
more work, because you have to wash out the blender 3 times instead
of only once. But then, you'll have 3 different fruit flavors in your
freezer--bliss! You could even get carried away and make full batches
of 3 different flavors, giving you 24 to 30 coconut fruit pops in 3
flavors--ecstacy!
Multi-Colored Pops:
Make two 1/2 batches using two different kinds of fruit. Fill the
Popsicle molds half way with the 1st batch and freeze for 1 hour.
Fill Popsicle molds the rest of the way with the 2nd batch and freeze
popsicles for 3 hours more before eating.
Sorbet:
Use a sorbet recipe to make the popsicles.
