Indulge in a tropical treat with these Avocado, Coconut & Lime Popsicles! Combining the creamy richness of avocados with the refreshing zest of lime and the delicate sweetness of coconut milk, these popsicles make for a healthy and delicious dessert. Perfect for a hot day, they are not only tasty but also easy to make with just a few wholesome ingredients.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop out the flesh into a blender.
- Shake the can of coconut milk well before measuring to ensure it's well-mixed.
- Add the avocado flesh, coconut milk, stevia leaf sweetener, and lime juice into the blender.
- Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides to ensure everything is well combined.
- Taste the mixture before proceeding and adjust sweetness or lime as needed. Add a bit more stevia or lime juice if you prefer a sweeter or more tart flavor.
- Carefully pour the blended mixture into popsicle molds. Leave a small gap at the top of each mold to allow for expansion as they freeze.
- Insert the popsicle sticks into the molds. If your molds have slots for the sticks, place the sticks now. If not, you may need to wait about an hour until the popsicles are semi-frozen to insert the sticks, so they stand upright.
- Place the molds in the freezer and freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely solid.
- To remove the popsicles from the molds, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds to help release them.
- Enjoy your creamy and refreshing Avocado, Coconut & Lime Popsicles immediately or store them in the freezer in a sealed container or plastic bag for up to a week.
Tips:
- Opt for ripe avocados: Ensure your avocados are ripe for a creamier texture and better flavor.
- Adjust sweetness to taste: If you prefer a sweeter treat, increase the stevia leaf sweetener or substitute with another sweetener of your choice.
- Use full-fat coconut milk: For extra creaminess, use full-fat coconut milk rather than light versions.
- Freeze overnight: For best results, let the popsicles freeze overnight to ensure they are completely set.
- Add zest: For added flavor, consider adding some lime zest to the mixture before freezing.
These Avocado, Coconut & Lime Popsicles are a fantastic way to beat the heat with a healthy and refreshing dessert. With minimal ingredients and simple preparation, you can easily whip up these popsicles and enjoy a moment of tropical bliss. Whether for a family gathering or a solo treat, these popsicles are sure to delight!
