Why buy ice pops which are loaded with sugar when it’s so easy to make healthy homemade icy poles for toddlers? This pineapple and blueberry recipe is super easy to make and so delicious, plus the colour added by the blueberries make them really stand out. The whole family will be raiding the freezer!

Ingredients

2 cups of chopped fresh or tinned pineapple
1 cup of fresh plain coconut water
1 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries
1 tablespoon of honey (optional)

Directions

Use the blender function on your steamer blender, and blend all 3 ingredients until smooth;
Add the honey for a little extra natural sweetness and blend again;
Portion into ice poles using the handy collapsible funnel that comes with your reusable Freeze n Squeeze ice pop pouches;
Place in freezer for a minimum of 4 hours.

Recipe Note

Coconut water can be used as a healthy alternative to fruit juice or sugary drinks, and is a rich source of potassium and vitamin C. Pineapples contain high amounts of vitamin C which is excellent at revitalising your immune system. Blueberries are considered a ‘super food’ and contain plenty of fibre, vitamin A and vitamin C.

Honey is not recommended for infants under 1 year of age as it contains a bacteria which can cause Infant Botulism. But as a natural sweetener it is perfect to give to older kids.

Suitable for toddlers over 12 months of age.
