Kiwifruit Popsicles Recipe
You can find a lot of ZESPRI kiwifruits in the market now and I always love to enjoy eating kiwifruits with yoghurt or ice cream. After seeing Ellena of Cuisine Paradise posted 14 amazing kiwifruits recipes in 14 days tempted me to buy the kiwifruits immediately. I think the most quick and easy recipe is to make them into healthy and natural popsicles. I did not bother to add honey, juice or lemonade as most people do but just blended the kiwifruits with little water and sugar together. These are the lovely sourish Kiwifruit Popsicles that I made before the weekend for friends and family to enjoy this cold treat to beat the scorching hot temperature.
I used this flexible silicone mould from SiliconeMoulds.com that is very suitable for use in the freezer and oven. Thank you so much Sarah Jane, I really love it!
Kiwifruit Popsicles
Ingredients: makes 12 popsicles
- 3 Green kiwifruits
- 3 Gold kiwifruits
- 4 tbsp Water
- 4 tbs Sugar
Methods:
Remove kiwifruits skin and cut into large cubes.
Place gold kiwifruits with 2 tablespoon of water and sugar into blender or liquidiser, blend until just smooth or with some small lumps are fine. Do not over blend the kiwifruits, otherwise seeds will be crushed and make popsicles bitter.
Pour out blended gold kiwifruits into a cup and set aside.
Then blend the green kiwifruits.
Carefully pour half blended kiwifruits into silicone individual moulds (6 gold kiwifruits and 6 green kiwifruits as I wanted to make a two tones colour in one popsicle).
Place silicone mould in freezer for about 30 minutes until popsicles partially frozen then insert popsicle sticks in the center.
Put the silicone mould back to the freezer for another 15 minutes or more to make sure the sticks are firmly secured in the popsicles and pour (or use a teaspoon to scoop) in the remaining blended kiwifruits on top of it. Freeze popsicles until hard for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Hope you have a wonderful week!
