Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 10 ounces (280 grams) white chocolate chips
- ⅓ cup (80 milliliters) sunflower seed butter
- ⅓ cup (80 milliliters) unsweetened applesauce
- ¾ cup (90 grams) oat flour
Supportive Ingredients:
- 2 teaspoons (10 grams) sugar
- 1 teaspoon (5 grams) flaxseed meal
- A pinch of salt
Decorative Ingredients:
- ¼ cup (40 grams) colored sprinkles
Instructions
- In a spacious mixing vessel, thoroughly blend oat flour, sunflower seed butter, applesauce, sugar, flaxseed meal, and salt until the mixture achieves a uniform consistency.
- Utilize a compact cookie scoop to carefully shape the blend into uniform spherical formations, ensuring each orb maintains a consistent size and texture.
- Gently insert popsicle sticks into the center of each sphere, pressing firmly to secure placement.
- Transfer the prepared spheres to the freezer, allowing them to solidify and chill completely for approximately one hour.
- Prepare the chocolate coating by selecting either a double boiler or microwave technique for melting white chocolate, maintaining gentle heat and consistent stirring to prevent scorching.
- When using a double boiler, keep water at a gentle simmer and stir chocolate until achieving a smooth, glossy liquid consistency.
- For microwave melting, employ short 20-30 second intervals, pausing between each burst to stir and prevent overheating.
- Remove frozen spheres from freezer and delicately submerge each one into the molten white chocolate, ensuring complete and even coverage.
- Immediately garnish the chocolate-coated spheres with vibrant colored sprinkles while the coating remains wet, allowing decorations to adhere naturally.
- Place the decorated pops on parchment paper or a specialized cake pop stand to set and solidify.
- Store the completed sunshine pops in the freezer, where they will remain fresh for up to six months.
- Prior to serving, remove pops from freezer and allow them to rest at room temperature for approximately 15 minutes, enabling a softer, more palatable texture.
Notes
- Stash these delightful frozen treats in an airtight container for easy grab-and-go snacking.
- Quick tip: Let pops thaw slightly before biting into their creamy, crunchy goodness for the best texture experience.
- Customize your sunshine pops by swapping sprinkles or experimenting with different chocolate coatings to match any mood or celebration.
