Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole (about 4 cups diced) fresh pineapple
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 cup water
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
1. Peel the pineapple by cutting off the top and bottom, then slicing off the outer skin. Remove any 'eyes' left on the flesh, then dice the pineapple into small chunks.
2. Add the diced pineapple, honey, lime juice, water, and a pinch of salt to a blender.
3. Blend the ingredients until you achieve a smooth consistency. If your blender struggles with larger chunks, blend in batches if necessary.
4. Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness by adding more honey if desired.
5. Carefully pour the blended pineapple mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a small amount of space at the top to allow for expansion during freezing.
6. Insert popsicle sticks into each mold and ensure they are positioned upright.
7. Freeze the popsicles for at least 6 hours, or until completely solid.
8. To remove the pops from the molds, run the outside of the molds under warm water for a few seconds to loosen them. Serve immediately and enjoy!
