Peach Popsicles!

I just got my popsicle molds in the mail and was so excited to try out this one! I made it with 2% milk and honey and one and a half fresh peaches. Now my roommate and I are waiting impatiently for them to be frozen enough to eat.

I asked her if it had been two hours yet and she said it probably was almost.  And then I checked back in my instant messenger to when I told my husband I had just made peach pops and it had only been like 20 minutes.  Dang.  They will probably be good for breakfast though!

Also I had way more than enough for 8 of my popsicle molds, so I also filled up on of my star ice cube trays (also got in the mail today, yay!) with the rest and used toothpicks.  We are hoping maybe they would freeze faster?

Got the recipe here

INGREDIENTS

  • 1-1/2 cups Silk Light Vanilla soymilk
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen peaches
  • 3 Tbsp sweetener of choice (agave, honey, etc.)
  • 8 ice-pop molds or small paper cups
  • 8 ice-pop sticks

PREPARATION

Place Silk, fruit and sweetener in a blender and puree until smooth. Pour mixture evenly into molds or cups and freeze until solid, about 2-3 hours. If using paper cups, cover each cup with plastic wrap and then insert stick through plastic to keep stick centered.

NOTE: You may substitute 2 cups of any fresh or frozen fruit or berries. This recipe is also great with Silk Pure Almond Vanilla almondmilk or Silk Pure Coconut Vanilla coconutmilk. Nutritional information calculated using Silk Light Vanilla soymilk.

Makes 8

Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Freezing Time: 2+ hours
