Kids and adults alike both love these fruit popsicles. It’s like having a fresh fruit smoothie, only frozen on a stick. Since these popsicles are pure fruit (not fruit juice) and have no sugar added, they make a cool and refreshing treat just about any time of day. Perfect for those hot summer days!

Things You Need:

(1) Homemade Applesauce (steamed or baked apples, pureed into a sauce). Approximately 2-3 apples.

Super Cooking Tip: You can combine just about any fruit to make these yummy popsicles. All you need is the main ingredient “applesauce”. The applesauce (which is just cooked & pureed apples) actually holds the popsicle together and gives it a smooth consistency. I also sometimes add “pear” sauce (aka cooked and pureed pears) to the base. The only fruit that needs to be cooked is the apples (and/or pears), the rest of the fruits can be fresh or frozen and added directly in the blender.

AND

(2) At least a handful of 1 or more of the following fresh or frozen uncooked fruits:

• Blueberries
• Strawberries
• Raspberries
• Cherries
• Mangos
• Peaches
• Nectarines
• Plums
• Apricots

Note: For the popsicles pictured in this post, I used homemade applesauce, fresh strawberries, fresh blueberries and fresh cherries. During the winter months (which is still technically summer in Singapore), I usually use frozen fruits to make my popsicles since it is more cost efficient and readily available. The quantity of the fruit doesn’t matter – add as much or as little of each fruit as you like.

(3) Water

(4) Popsicle Molds

(5) A Blender
