Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh pineapple chunks
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the ingredients: Gather 3 cups of fresh pineapple chunks, 1 cup of full-fat coconut milk, 2 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup, 1 tablespoon of fresh lime juice, and optionally 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Blend the mixture: Place the pineapple chunks, coconut milk, honey, lime juice, and vanilla extract into a blender. Blend on high until completely smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are fully combined.
- Fill molds: Pour the blended mixture evenly into your popsicle molds, making sure to leave a small gap at the top to allow for expansion during freezing.

- Freeze: Place the molds in the freezer and let them freeze for at least 6 hours, or ideally overnight, until the popsicles are fully solidified.
