Ingredients
Fruit Purees
- 3 cups watermelon, cubed
- 4-5 kiwis, peeled and cubed
Dairy
- 3/4 cup coconut yogurt
Instructions
- Prepare Watermelon Puree: Cube the watermelon and place it in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth to create the watermelon puree.
- Freeze Watermelon Layer: Pour the watermelon puree into popsicle molds and freeze for 3 hours until slightly firm.
- Add Coconut Yogurt Layer: Spread a thin layer of coconut yogurt over the partially frozen watermelon in the molds. Return the molds to the freezer for an additional 1.5 hours to allow the yogurt layer to set.
- Prepare Kiwi Puree: Peel and cube the kiwis, then blend them into a smooth puree using a blender or food processor.
- Add Kiwi Layer and Final Freeze: Pour the kiwi puree over the set yogurt layer in the molds. Freeze the popsicles for at least 6 hours or until completely firm before serving.
Notes
- You can substitute coconut yogurt with any dairy-free or regular yogurt of your choice.
- Ensure each layer is partially frozen before adding the next to prevent blending of flavors.
- For extra sweetness, you can add a small amount of honey or agave syrup to the fruit purees before blending.
- Use popsicle sticks suitable for your molds to avoid melting issues.
- To release popsicles easily, run warm water over the molds for a few seconds before removing.
