Coconut Pineapple Popsicles

Recipe by Kelli Avila

  • Total Time12 hours 10 minutes
  • Yield10 Popsicles 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 (20-ounce) can pineapple chunks or slices, drained and juice reserved (see note)
  • 1/2 cup pineapple juice (or substitute cream or water)
  • 1 (11.25-ounce) can sweetened condensed coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarse kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Add the pineapple, juice, condensed coconut milk, pineapple juice, lime juice, vanilla extract and salt to the blender. Blend until smooth, about 3 minutes. The mixture will “break” at first, but keep blending until it comes back together.
  2. Divide the pineapple coconut base evenly among the popsicle molds.
  3. Add the covers and popsicle sticks to the molds.
  4. Freeze overnight until solid.
  5. To loosen the popsicles from their molds, either run them under warm running water for 10 to 15 seconds, or dip them in a bowl of warm water for the same period of time and gently pull on the sticks to release. 
  6. Wrap each popsicle individually in parchment paper, then place them in an airtight container or a freezer-safe bag. Freeze until solid, 30 to 60 minutes. 

Notes

This recipe makes enough for 10 (3-ounce) popsicles, but the quantity can vary depending on the size and shape of the popsicle mold.

This recipe was tested with fresh pineapple, thawed frozen pineapple and canned pineapple. The best flavor came from the drained canned pineapple. Fresh pineapple can be used, but it should be extremely ripe.

The pineapple juice can be replaced with another liquid such as cream, water.

This recipe was tested using Diamond Crystal coarse kosher salt. If you use Morton's kosher salt or fine salt, decrease the volume by half.
