Beat the summer heat with these refreshing and healthy Blueberry Nice Cream Popsicles. Packed with the goodness of blueberries and the creamy texture of nice cream, these frozen treats are a guilt-free delight for both kids and adults. Let's dive into the simple and delicious recipe!
Ingredients:
2 cups frozen blueberries
2 ripe bananas, peeled, sliced, and frozen
1/2 cup vanilla yogurt (Greek or dairy-free alternative)
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
Prepare the Blueberry Nice Cream Base:
In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine the frozen blueberries, frozen banana slices, vanilla yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. The consistency should be similar to soft-serve ice cream.
Fill Popsicle Molds:
Spoon the blueberry nice cream mixture into popsicle molds, tapping them gently on the counter to remove any air bubbles.
Insert popsicle sticks into the center of each mold, making sure they are standing upright.
Freeze Until Solid:
Place the popsicle molds in the freezer and let them set for at least 4-6 hours or until completely frozen.
Unmold and Enjoy:
Once the popsicles are frozen solid, run the molds briefly under warm water to loosen the popsicles. Gently pull them out of the molds.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Blueberry Nice Cream Popsicles!
Additional Tips:
Feel free to customize the recipe by adding other fruits, such as strawberries or raspberries.
For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a handful of fresh blueberries directly into the popsicle molds before pouring in the nice cream mixture.
Experiment with different toppings like shredded coconut or a drizzle of melted dark chocolate for an indulgent twist.
These Blueberry Nice Cream Popsicles are a delightful and nutritious way to cool down during the summer months. With the natural sweetness of blueberries and bananas, they are a guilt-free treat that will satisfy your sweet tooth. Enjoy the refreshing taste of summer in every bite! 🍦🫐✨
