Whole 30 Tropical Popsicles Recipe
It’s the time of year for a much needed tropical vacation so get a little taste of the tropics with these Whole30 Tropical Paradise Popsicles!
Anyone else window shopping for bathing suits? We have for the past few weeks now! It’s the time of year for a much needed tropical vacation. Winter lasted for just about ever. Spring has made short appearances. But grey and chilly is still the weather’s go-to look.
While I (Rebecca) dream of lounging on sunny beaches and eyeing airplane tickets to resorts, I at least can get a little taste of the tropics with these Whole 30 Tropical Popsicles.
The best part? They’re Whole30, paleo, and vegan-approved, with no added sugar or dairy, and when of our favorite Whole 30 recipes. So you can have your popsicles and eat them too, with no regrets when you finally do make it to that beach.
Ingredients for Whole30 Coconut Kiwi Popsicles
A few notes about the ingredients: For the pineapple, you can use a fresh one or a can of pineapple tidbits. Just drain the juice first if you do. And you could absolutely throw in other fruits like strawberries or coconut flakes if desired.
However, make sure that any extra ingredients have no added sugar to keep them Whole30 compatible.
Also, the coconut cream gives the popsicles a creamy indulgent flavor, but you could absolutely substitute regular coconut milk for a lighter option.
Can I Make Popsicles Without a Mold?
And don’t write this recipe off if you don’t have a popsicle mold! There’s no need to run out and buy one either. They can just as easily be frozen in a small glass. After they’ve been in the freezer for a while just pop in a popsicle stick.
Or use a bamboo chopstick, trimmed down to size, like I did here.
So, whether you’re in the middle of Whole30 and need a little treat to get you through, or are looking for a guilt-free dessert escape, these Tropical Popsicles could be just the ticket! Puns very much intended, of course.
