Introduction

Make sure to reserve a portion of the peaches as you puree the mixture so the pops will be packed with icy cold, chunky bits of fruit. For a grown-up twist, try adding 1 to 2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh mint, lemon verbena or basil.

Ingredients

    1 1/4 pounds ripe peaches, (3-4 medium), halved and pitted
    Juice of 1 lemon
    1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
    1/4 cup sugar, or to taste
    1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Tips

I cut the recipe in half. For freezing I placed the mixture in 3 small 2 cup bowls. After a couple of hours I took them out and with a fork broke the mixture up and served in small bowls. I think you could place in the blender again and really mix it up, then with an ice cream scoop place it in a small ice cream bowl. Very Delicious!


Directions

Coarsely chop peaches in a food processor. Transfer 1 cup of the chunky peaches to a medium bowl. Add lemon juice, orange juice and sugar to taste (depending on the sweetness of the peaches) to the food processor. Puree until smooth. Add to the bowl with the chunky peaches and stir in vanilla.
Divide the mixture among twelve 2-ounce or eight 3-ounce freezer-pop molds (or small paper cups). Freeze until beginning to set, about 1 hour. Insert frozen-treat sticks and freeze until completely firm, about 1 hour more.
