How To Make Creamsicles

So now that it’s August, the panic has started to set in for all the summery things I need to do before labour day arrives in September. But I also know I want to stop and smell the roses… or whatever summer flowers are in bloom at the moment. If I don’t get everything done on my list, OH WELL, there is always next year. So I’m going to start small, like by making oodles and oodles of these orange creamsicle popsicles and enjoy them whenever I feel like it.

The best part about making these orange creamsicle popsicles is that they take no time at all to prepare. Start by setting 1 tbsp of orange zest to the side and then peel and chop the 2 large oranges into quarters and add them to a high-speed blender. Next, remove the pits from the dates. It’s important that your dates are soft and gooey as they will be the sweetest and the easiest to blend. If you only have hard dates, let them sit in some hot water for 30 minutes to soften. Either way, make sure those pits are removed before adding the dates to the blender.

Add 1 can (400mL) of full-fat coconut milk to the blender. This is my favourite brand. Full fat is KEY here. Toss in that orange zest and then blend the mixture until it is thick, creamy and completely smooth. Divide the orange creamsicle mixture into 6-8 popsicle moulds. I recently bought a stainless steel one from my local zero waste store and I’m in love with it. The popsicles don’t stick to the inside when they are ready to be eaten. Simply run the orange creamsicle popsicles under a little bit of water and they remove super easily and the clean-up isn’t hard at all. Freeze the creamsicles for roughly 6 hours or until frozen.

And then these orange creamsicle popsicles will be waiting for you when you get home from the beach to cool you down!
