You only need three simple ingredients: strawberries, coconut cream, and coconut milk. Get ready to indulge in the creamy, fruity goodness of these homemade popsicles!
Step 1: Preparing the Strawberries
Start by washing the fresh strawberries thoroughly. Remove the stems and chop them into small pieces. If you prefer a smoother texture, you can blend the strawberries in a food processor or blender until smooth. This step allows you to customize the texture of your popsicles according to your preference.
Step 2: Mixing the Ingredients
In a bowl, combine the chopped strawberries, coconut cream, and coconut milk. Gently stir the mixture until well combined. If desired, you can add a touch of sweetness by incorporating a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup. Remember, though, that the natural sweetness of the strawberries is often sufficient.
Step 3: Filling the Popsicle Molds
Carefully pour the strawberry and cream mixture into the popsicle molds, leaving a small space at the top for expansion during freezing. If your molds don't have built-in sticks, insert popsicle sticks into the molds. Alternatively, you can cover the molds with plastic wrap and insert the sticks through the plastic wrap, ensuring they remain upright.
Step 4: Freezing Time!
Place the filled popsicle molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze for at least 4-6 hours or until completely solid. It's best to leave them overnight to ensure they're fully set.
