    These vegan peach popsicles are a wholesome and delicious treat with just TWO ingredients needed. They’re creamy, dreamy and SO delicious. Whip them up in no time and freeze to enjoy on a hot summer day.

    This recipe was originally published in August 2018. It has been updated for content and photos.

    Popsicles are the perfect treat to beat the summer heat, and these peach popsicles will not disappoint.

    Like my strawberry banana and coconut lime popsicles, these ice pops are refined sugar-free, and use minimal ingredients.

    Plus, they’re naturally vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free, and soy-free, making them suitable for most diets.

    Ingredients + Substitutions

    All you need to make these peach popsicles are two ingredients. But I’m including a few optional extras to jazz up the flavour, if you’d like.

    Peaches, bowl of milk, bowl of maple syrup, vanilla and cinnamon on kitchen counter.
    See recipe card for quantities.
    • Peaches: Of course you need peaches. Use FRESH + RIPE peaches for the best flavour and natural sweetness.
    • Milk: I prefer full-fat canned coconut milk for its rich flavour, but you may use a light version OR use almond milk, cashew milk, oat milk, or soy milk for a low-fat option.
    • Maple syrup: The sweetener is optional, and if you’re using ripe, in season peaches, you can skip it. Taste the mixture without the syrup and add it only if you feel it’s needed. You may also use date syrup, or another sweetener, of your choice.
    • Vanilla: Use pure vanilla extract (if using), and not the artificial stuff.
    • Cinnamon: Another optional ingredient, but adds a boost of flavour.

    Instructions

    (This is a summary with step by step photos, full recipe measurements and instructions are in the recipe card below.)

    Divide the mixture between the six popsicle molds and place the lids (or sticks) in the center and freeze. (photo 2)

    NOTES: I like to keep mine with a few chunks for texture in my popsicles, but blend them smooth for picky eaters. If using wooden popsicle sticks, instead of the mold covers, freeze for 1-2 hours until the sticks can be placed and held upright. Then continue freezing until solid.

    To remove from the mold

    • Fill a bowl with warm water, as tall as your mold, and place it inside, without overflowing the top where the sticks are. Wait 15-20 seconds before removing, and then use a side-to-side motion to remove the popsicles from the mold.
    • You may also run the popsicles under warm water using your kitchen sink faucet for 15-20 seconds, or until they remove easily.
    • If the popsicles are still soft, place them on a plate and return them to the freezer.

    Equipment

    You will need a popsicle mold and any mold will work, however, my preference is this silicone one (affiliate link). I like silicone because my plastic ones cracked after a few uses. Plus, I find it simpler to remove the frozen popsicles from a silicone mold.

    You’ll need a food processor OR a blender to make the popsicle mixture. However, if you don’t have either, you can get this done by hand, too. It won’t be as smooth, but it’ll work.

    How to make the popsicles by hand

    If you don’t have an appliance to blend your peach popsicle mixture, no worries! Use a potato masher to mash the peaches in a large bowl. Once mostly smooth, pour in the milk and remaining optional ingredients if using them. Stir to combine, divide among your mold and freeze.

    You won’t be able to get smooth popsicles this way, but they’ll be equally delicious.

    Storage

    Freeze the popsicles in their mold for at least 6 hours, or until serving. Keep frozen until ready to enjoy. They’ll keep in the freezer for 6 months, or longer.

    To keep frozen over a long period, remove the peach popsicles from their mold. Then store in ziptop bags or freezer-safe, air-tight containers. Don’t keep them in the mold for more than a few days or the tops will begin to develop a layer of freezer burn.

    Expert Tips

    • When peaches are in season and extra sweet, you may skip the optional maple syrup for a no sugar added dessert.
    • For chunkier pieces of fruit in your peach popsicles, use a food processor and do not overprocess.
    • For perfectly smooth peach popsicles, use a blender until pureed. (If you have picky eaters, this is the way to go.)
    • If using popsicle sticks (instead of the lids that come with your mold), freeze the popsicles for 1-2 hours, just enough for the sticks to hold straight, and then add the sticks and continue freezing until solid.
    • Freeze time will vary according to the thickness of your mold. Most popsicles will freeze in 4-6 hours.
    • For less fat, use LIGHT canned coconut milk.
    • For low fat, use another plant based milk such as almond milk, or cashew milk instead of coconut milk. Note, that the peach popsicles will be less rich this way.
