Ingredients
- 2 pints fresh blueberries about 4 cups
- ¾ cup canned coconut milk or milk of choice, see notes
- 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup see notes
- Zest of 1 lemon optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF and place blueberries in a single layer on large baking sheet (divide between to sheets as needed). Roast blueberries for 10 minutes and allow to cool.
- Blend: Place blueberries, coconut milk, maple syrup, and lemon zest in a blender and blend until smooth.
- Add to mold: Carefully pour mixture into your popsicle molds (I used this one) and insert popsicle stick, placing about ¾ way down the center.
- Freeze for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
- Enjoy: To remove popsicles, run the outside of the mold under warm water, then gently remove.

Notes
- 100% FRUIT - if you don’t want a creamy popsicle, feel free to sub in 100% natural juice, like Concord Grape Juice.

- MILK - changing the milk will likely result in a less creamy texture, as coconut milk has a higher fat content than most dairy-alternative milks.
- SWEETENER - roasting the blueberries brings out their natural sweetness and even more blueberry flavor in these popsicles. It also reduces the need to add in more maple syrup or other sweeteners.
