Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cups Fresh lemon juice
- 0.5 cups Coconut cream
- 1 cups Cold water
- 1 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoons Lemon zest
- 4 pieces Pitted Medjool dates
Instructions
1. In a high-speed blender, combine the fresh lemon juice, coconut cream, cold water, pure vanilla extract, lemon zest, and pitted Medjool dates.
2. Blend the mixture on high speed until the dates are completely broken down and the mixture is smooth. This may take 1–2 minutes, depending on the power of your blender.
3. Taste the mixture and adjust for tanginess or sweetness if needed. Add a little more lemon juice for extra zest or another date for added sweetness, ensuring it remains Whole30-compliant.
4. Pour the blended mixture evenly into six popsicle molds, making sure to leave a small gap at the top to allow for expansion as it freezes.
5. Tap the molds gently on the countertop to release any air bubbles.
6. Insert popsicle sticks into the center of each mold and freeze for at least 6 hours, or until fully set.
7. To remove the popsicles from the molds, run the molds under warm water for a few seconds to loosen them, then gently pull the popsicles out.
8. Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30-friendly zesty lemon popsicles!
