Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, drained if canned)
- 1 cup orange juice (freshly squeezed preferred)
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional, for additional sweetness)
- 0.25 cup water
Instructions
Prepare your ingredients. If using fresh pineapple, core and chop it into chunks. If using canned pineapple, ensure it’s drained well.
Add the pineapple chunks, orange juice, honey or maple syrup (if using), and water into a blender.
Blend the mixture on high speed until it becomes smooth and there are no visible chunks of pineapple remaining.
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if needed by adding more honey or maple syrup.
Pour the blended mixture evenly into popsicle molds, leaving a small amount of space at the top to allow for expansion as they freeze.
Insert the popsicle sticks into the molds and carefully transfer them to the freezer.
Freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until the popsicles are completely solid.
To release the popsicles from the molds, briefly run warm water over the outside of each mold to loosen them. Gently pull the popsicles out.
Enjoy your homemade Pineapple Orange Popsicles immediately, or store them in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to 2 weeks.
