The holiday weekend is upon us and that means one thing – SUMMER is here! Now regrettably, our weather in PA will not be reflective of this season change but it’s all good. I know, as I sit here typing with the a/c on, the heat will arrive again and sweating will commence. I’m not a fan of grocery store frozen treats. I like to know what I’m eating and be able to readily pronounce all of the ingredients in my food. Let’s face it, you’ve been given one body – treat it right! This is my first batch for the unofficial start of summer and I’m so excited to dig in (as well as for my kids and husband). You can totally customize these and use what fresh fruit you have on hand. Just follow the amounts and you should be good to go! Sadly, you need patience until they freeze – the only downside! Totally vegan!
Ingredients:
2 cups of fresh berries, bananas, fruit you have on hand
1/2 cup of coconut milk
1 tablespoon of raw honey, honey, agave or maple syrup
Directions:
Blend everything in your Vitamix, food processor or blender. Pour into your molds and freeze for at least 6-8 hours. You can add sliced fruit to the sides of your molds if you wish. After frozen: To dislodge, run under warm water for a a few seconds. Serve and enjoy!

So simple, but so yum! I must give these a try. I bet my kids would love.
I know, right?! Love great, healthy food that is simple to prepare and delicious. Will be also posting some fun yogurt pops too!
I made my kids a batch last week: strawberries, almond milk, greek yogurt, and flax!
Yum. I have some Chobani pops to share next week too. Stay tuned
What a great idea. I bought some cute popsicle molds on sale at the end of the summer last year, and I haven’t taken them out of the box yet. I am totally going to use this technique. I don’t know why I never thought to puree fruit and coconut milk. I always just use fruit juice. I guess I am a slacker. Lol. I love thinking of the possibilities of flavor combos. PS I don’t have a Vitamix, but i very desperately want one.
You can easily use a blender. So good and healthy… perfect combination. My kids cannot stop eating them
We LOVE your Popsicles! This recipe looks amazing and so healthy since you use fresh ingredients.
Thanks you Kristin!!! oxoxo
I love how easy these are – they look gorgeous!
They are so yummy. Easy is a bonus
I just whipped up a batch of these. The mix tastes soooo good-cant wait for them to come out of the freezer! Was looking for a recipe without tons of sugar but still has lots of flavour-this is it!
Naomi, I’m totally with you. Sugar is so bad for you! I hope you love these as much as we do. oxo
