Homemade Carrot Ginger pops

Carrot Ginger pops



Vegetables in Popsicles...?
Has She Gone Mad....?
They're Delicious & Nutritious.
So much better for you than Store-Bought & cheaper too.

Ingredients:

3 carrots chopped, lightly steamed
1/4" X 1" round of ginger root, peeled, lightly steamed
1/2 c apple juice
1/2 cup almond/coconut milk
1 tsp coconut oil
2 Tbsp agave necter
2 Tbsp raw honey
1 tsp lemon zest minced very small

Directions:
The beauty of making these is you basically let a blender
do all the work for you.
We have a NINJA

First scrape & chop Carrots & ginger.
Toss into a steamer/strainer over boiling water until just
forking tender.
Into blender with coconut oil, syrups, zest, then hot carrots
(this melts the oil & releases Lemon essence),then liquids.
Whiz it all together until relatively smooth.
Pour into clean popsicle mold.
Set in freezer for at least 3 hours.



We started making these pops when our young ones started getting sick this winter.
Craft your pops to the ailment.
Just about everyone likes a popsicle, so Don't Worry, Be Appy.
