Description
Peaches & cream popsicles whisper summer’s sweetest dreams, blending ripe orchard peaches with silky cream for a refreshing frozen treat. Cool waves of nostalgia and fruity delight wash over you with each creamy, indulgent bite.
Ingredients
Scale
Fruits:
- 4 medium-large peaches
Dairy and Base Liquids:
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) milk or cream
- ½ cup (120 milliliters) orange juice
Sweeteners and Flavoring:
- ¼ cup (50 grams) white sugar
- ½ teaspoon (2.5 milliliters) vanilla extract
Instructions
- Rinse peaches under cold water, ensuring thorough cleansing. Slice peaches in half and carefully remove the pits, keeping the skin intact for added texture and vibrant color.
- Transfer peach halves into a blender. Add milk, cream, orange juice, sugar, and vanilla extract. Pulse and blend at high speed until the mixture transforms into a silky, homogeneous liquid.
- Select clean popsicle molds and gently pour the blended mixture, leaving a small space at the top to prevent overflow during freezing.
- Carefully insert popsicle sticks into the center of each mold, ensuring they stand upright and are evenly positioned.
- Transfer the filled molds to the freezer, positioning them flat to maintain stick alignment. Allow the popsicles to solidify completely, typically requiring 4-6 hours or overnight for optimal results.
- When ready to serve, briefly run the mold under warm water to release the popsicles smoothly. If not consuming immediately, wrap each popsicle in plastic wrap and return to the freezer to maintain freshness.
Notes
- Creamy texture comes from blending milk or cream with ripe, juicy peaches for a smooth, indulgent summer treat.
- Customizable recipe allows swapping orange juice with lemon juice or adding a pinch of cinnamon for extra flavor depth.
- Homemade popsicles store perfectly in freezer-safe bags for up to one month, making them a convenient grab-and-go dessert.
