Watermelon Raspberry Breakfast Pops Recipes

STRAWBERRY-CHIA BREAKFAST POPS

Steps:

• Whisk together the evaporated milk, lime juice, honey and chia seeds in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate until the seeds have plumped, about 2 hours, stirring halfway through.
• Hull and finely chop the strawberries and stir them into the chia mixture. Spoon the strawberry-chia pudding evenly among four 3- to 4-ounce ice pop molds (it will be thick); tap the molds on the countertop to pop any air bubbles. Freeze the pops until solid, at least 8 hours and up to overnight. Let sit at room temperature for a few minutes before unmolding.
• The pops will keep in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

BLUEBERRY-LEMON BREAKFAST POPS

Steps:

• Combine the blueberries, yogurt, maple syrup, lemon zest and juice and a pinch of salt in a blender and puree until smooth.
• Divide the mixture evenly among four 3- to 4-ounce ice pop molds and freeze until solid, at least 8 hours and preferably overnight. Let sit at room temperature for a few minutes before unmolding.
• The pops will keep in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

WATERMELON-RASPBERRY GRANITA

Steps:

• Combine the raspberries, sugar and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries have completely broken down, about 6 minutes.
• Press the raspberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a blender; let cool completely. Add the watermelon and lime juice and puree until smooth. Pour the mixture into an 8-inch-square stainless-steel or glass baking dish.
• Freeze until ice crystals begin forming around the edges, about 45 minutes. Use a fork to scrape the crystals toward the center of the pan, then continue freezing, scraping every 30 minutes, until frozen, about 4 hours.

WATERMELON MARGARITA POPS

Steps:

• Pierce the rind of each watermelon wedge with the tip of a paring knife to make a 1/2-inch-wide slit that is about 1 inch deep. Combine the tequila, lime juice and agave in an extra-large resealable plastic bag. Add the watermelon, seal the bag and turn it over gently to combine. Refrigerate, turning over once more halfway through, for about 1 hour.
• Line 2 baking sheets with wax paper. Insert an ice-pop stick into the slit of each watermelon wedge. Put on the prepared baking sheets and freeze until solid, 4 hours to overnight. Serve with lime wedges and chile powder.

WATERMELON POPS

Steps:

• Working in batches, place watermelon and sugar (if using) in a blender. Puree until completely liquefied, stirring watermelon as necessary so all cubes are blended and mixture is smooth. Pour into twelve 3-ounce ice-pop molds or plastic cups. Insert sticks or wooden spoons into puree, and freeze until solid, at least 8 hours.

WATERMELON POPS

Steps:

• Mix 1/3 cup sugar and lime gelatin mix in medium bowl. Add 1 cup boiling water; stir 2 min. until completely dissolved. Add enough ice to 1/2 cup cold water to measure 3/4 cup. Add to lime gelatin; stir until ice is completely melted. Refrigerate 25 min.
• Meanwhile, repeat Step 1 using strawberry gelatin mix and omitting the refrigeration step. Pour into 16 (3-oz.) paper cups. Freeze 20 min. Stir 1/2 tsp. chocolate chips into gelatin in each cup.
• Beat cream cheese and remaining sugar with mixer in medium bowl until well blended. Stir in COOL WHIP; spread over gelatin in cups.
• Pour lime gelatin over cream cheese mixture. Insert wooden pop stick into gelatin in center of each cup. Freeze 3 hours or until firm. Remove pops from cups just before serving.
