These Peach Passion Pops taste like summer on a stick! You will LOVE the mix of peach and passion fruit flavors. These homemade popsicles are a little bit sweet, a little bit tart, and completely refreshing!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Homemade Peach Popsicles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I hardly ever make popsicles, and I don’t know why that is. I love frozen desserts. I love food on sticks. I love recipes that require zero cooking and minimal assembly. Popsicles are the perfect summer food, and I think we should all lobby to have them put at the base of the food pyramid, at least while the weather is beastly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My original intention was to do apricot-pistachio popsicles, because I’m having a love affair with apricots right now and I don’t care who knows it. (TM George Bluth). But Trader Joe’s was all out of apricots, and rather than drive 5 more minutes out of my way, I switched to peach popsicles instead. (It’s possible my apricot love isn’t as strong as I’m claiming it is.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Popsicles with a Tropical Twist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rather than do straight peach popsicles, I blended the peaches with passion fruit puree, to make a sweet-tart popsicle with a tropical flavor and lots of great texture from little chunks of peaches. If you’re more of a smooth popsicle person you can definitely blend them until silky smooth, but I like a little bit of chew in my pops, so the peach chunks were the perfect addition for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And hey, this wouldn’t be SugarHero without some gratuitous chocolate, right? I dipped a few of the popsicles in dark chocolate and covered them with a generous sprinkling of chopped pistachios. It changed the nature of the popsicles from “mostly healthy, with a bit o’ sugar” to “full-on dessert,” but that isn’t exactly an insult, right? You could dip just a few of the pops, and have an option for everyone! I also think this would be great with white chocolate—one of the few times I’ve uttered that sentence. Something about tart peach-passion fruit and really sweet white chocolate sounds so dreamy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
