Orange Creamsicle Pops were a childhood favorite of mine. I would chase down the ice cream man for them all the time and it was worth it. They were refreshing, sweet, creamy and tangy!
Well, now I’m a big kid and still love those tangy-sweet flavors together, so I veganized them and I couldn’t be happier. They are just as delicious as I remember!
WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO MAKE ORANGE CREAMSICLE POPS:
(FULL INGREDIENT AMOUNT IN RECIPE CARD BELOW)
1- Full-Fat Coconut Milk
2- Navel Oranges
3- Orange Zest
4- Maple Syrup or Agave Nectar
5- Vanilla Extract
6- Sea Salt
HOW TO MAKE ORANGE CREAMSICLE POPSICLES
STEP 1 – Place all the ingredients in a blender (except the zest) and blend for 15-20 seconds until smooth. Add the zest and pulse 2-4 times. If you don’t want small flecks of zest in the popsicles, you can add it in with all ingredients.
STEP 2 – Pour the mixture into a 6-Piece Popsicle Mold, leaving about 1/4″ of room on top. Place the sticks in the mixture and place in freezer for 4-6 hours. Enjoy!
DO YOU NEED TO USE NAVEL ORANGES FOR THIS RECIPE?
I chose navel oranges because they are perfectly sweet and they are seedless. You can use any oranges you prefer though. Just make sure they are seedless and medium-sized so you have the proper ratio.
CAN I USE STORE-BOUGHT ORANGE JUICE?
You can, but I feel that the flavor is lacking quite a bit with store-bought juice. The sweetness may need to be adjusted depending on how sweet or tangy the juice is. You’ll need about 1 1/4 cup of juice to replace the oranges.
