Simple & Healthy Fruit Pops

These tasty popsicles are the perfect treat to cool down with as the weather warms up! Not only are they an easy healthy snack, they’re completely customizable for the pickiest of eaters. All you need is a popsicle mold, sticks, your favorite fresh fruit, and a liquid to hold it all together!

›› Start by cutting up your favorite fruit. Juicier fruit (like berries) typically work best for an icy pop! 

›› Fill your popsicle molds with your chopped fruit. Fill them up as much as possible for the prettiest pops.

›› Pour your favorite liquid into the mold to hold your pop together. 

›› Use your mold to guide your popsicle sticks into place, before placing the filled mold into the freezer.

›› Freeze overnight.

More Tips:

To easily release your popsicles from the mold, try running the mold under hot water for about ten seconds.
