Mango Cherry Posicles
These mango Ccerry popsicles are made entirely of fruit and a touch of fruit juice so there is no added sugar, artificial sweetener or colouring involved. I'd say they are so healthy they are fair game anytime of day.
Servings: 8
Calories: 58kcal
Equipment
- 8 Popsicle moulds exact number made will depend on the size of the moulds used (my Silikomart moulds help 80ml liquid)
Ingredients
- 400 g Fresh Mango (weight when peeled and de-stoned)
- 1 lime
- 30 fresh cherries frozen can alternatively be used
- 120ml / ½ cup apple juice
Instructions
- Remove the skin and stone from the mangoes and dice the flesh.
- Pit the cherries.
- Squeeze the juice from the lime.
- Put all ingredients into a blender and blitz until smooth.
- Pour into your popsicle moulds and freeze for at least 6 hours (inserting sticks according to mould instructions).
- Once frozen remove from moulds, wrap individually in greaseproof paper and return to the freezer until required.
Notes
- If you do not have popsicle moulds try using paper cups instead.
- Ensure there is space in the freezer to lay or stand your moulds depending on their requirements.
- Don’t overfill the moulds. Liquid expands as it freezes, so fill close to the top of the mould but not all the way.
- Not over-filling the mould also makes them easier to transfer to the freezer without spillage.
- These mango cherry popsicles can be stored in the freezer for 1-2 weeks. After this length of time, the texture and flavour may begin to deteriorate as they do not contain any added preservatives.
