    Why you will love these popsicles: 

    • The taste! The flavours of vanilla and strawberry blend perfectly to give these real fruit popsicles the best flavour.
    • These strawberry vanilla popsicles are quick and easy to make and you only need 4 ingredients to make them!
    • This is a healthy popsicle recipe that's naturally gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, paleo, and refined sugar free.

    The ingredients needed to make strawberry vanilla popsicles separated into individual bowls.
    • Wet ingredients: full fat coconut milk, maple syrup and vanilla extract.
    • Dry ingredients: strawberries.

    Recipe variations and add ins:

    • To make these strawberry vanilla popsicles higher in protein add a few scoops of collagen peptides to the recipe (not if you are vegan).
    • If you have more than one popsicle mold feel free to make a double or triple batch and save some for later. 

    How to make strawberry vanilla popsicles: 

    A blender with a white liquid in it.

    Step 1

    Make the vanilla layer. To do this you will place all the vanilla layer ingredients into your food processor or high speed blender and blending them until smooth.

    A popsicle mold filled half way with a white liquid.

    Step 2

    Next, pour the ingredients into your popsicle molds (about a third to half full) and place them in the freezer for 20-25 minutes.

    Step 3

    While the vanilla layer is freezing, add the strawberry layer ingredients to your food processor or blender and blend well until smooth.

    Step 4

    Then remove the popsicle molds from the freezer and pour the strawberry layer on top of the vanilla layer.

    A popsicle mold filled half and half with a white and pink liquid.

    Step 5

    Now place the lid on the popsicle mold and put the popsicle sticks into each popsicle (use the slots on the top of the lid of your popsicle mold). Then place the molds back in the freezer and freezer for 3 hours, or until fully frozen. Then serve and enjoy!

    Top tips:

    • Don't worry about taking the stems off the strawberries - you can't taste them once they're blended so you can reduce your food waste by leaving them on (plus this makes them even easier to make).
    • Be sure to use full fat coconut milk. If you use low fat they will turn out more icy rather than creamy.
    • Run the outside of the popsicle mold under hot water for a few seconds when you remove it from the freezer to make the popsicles easier to remove from the mold.

    Strawberry vanilla popsicles FAQs:

    Is this a vegan popsicle recipe? 

    Yes it is! Just be sure to use maple syrup instead of honey to sweeten them. 

    Could I make these fruit popsicles with other fruit?

    Absolutely. Instead of strawberries they are also delicious with raspberries or blueberries. 

    How do you make popsicles creamy, not icy?

    You can make popsicles more creamy by adding coconut milk. This fat in the coconut milk keeps the popsicles nice and creamy, and adds even more flavour.

    How should I store these popsicles?

    Store these strawberry vanilla popsicles in the freezer in the popsicle mold until you are ready to eat them. They can be stored for up to 3 months.
