Mango popsicles: No added sugar: 3 ingredient recipe
Meenakshi
These mango popsicles are super flavorful and creamy. Yes, these are made without any refined sugar and with just 3 ingredients. A super simple, quick, and easy frozen treat to beat the summer heat.
Start by measuring the mango pulp and place it in the fridge beforehand. Keep the can of evaporated milk in the fridge a night before or at least 6 hours ahead of making the popsicles.
When ready to make, just combine mango pulp, water, evaporated milk, and honey. Mix honey nicely into the mixture.
Then, pour the mixture into the clean and dry molds.
Place the lid or popsicle sticks. Now freeze them for 6-8 hours.
When ready, take it out of the freezer and demold. Take some time to remove the popsicles from the mold as a single piece. Do not force them out, they should come out easily on their own.
Enjoy!
Making the mango popsicles using fresh mangoes
Start by peeling and cutting mango pieces. Now process them in a food processor into a smooth puree. Add evaporated milk, water, and honey into the food processor. Give them a quick pulse to combine everything well. Taste the mixture to adjust the amount of honey.
Now fill the mixture into the molds, leaving a little room at the top. Place the lid and transfer the mold into the freezer.
Now freeze for 6-8 hours. When ready, take it out of the freezer, demold, and enjoy!
Notes
Use chilled ingredients. This will helps the popsicles to set fast.
Make sure to mix the liquid well to incorporate honey nicely into it.
Do not add the entire can of the evaporated milk. More fat will make the popsicles overly creamy. But these are pops we want to be able to demold them intact. When we add too much fat (evaporated milk), it becomes difficult to release them in one piece. In such cases, give them some time, do not try to release them forcefully.
Try to leave a little bit of room at the top of the mold as the liquid will expand on freezing.
To make vegan mango popsicles recipe, that yields icy and mangoeey popsicles, you can just use water, coconut water, or mango juice with mango pulp and honey( as stated in the variation section). But if you want to make creamy and dreamy popsicles like these, you can use any kind of high-fat milk substitute. Something like the coconut evaporated milk will work best.
