Prep Time: 5 min | Cook Time: 5 min (+4 hours for freezing) | Total Time: 4 hours 10 min | Servings: 6 popsicles

Five Reasons to Start Using Berry Powders

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 banana, sliced and frozen
• 1/2 cup fresh or frozen black currant
• 1/2 cup fresh or frozen cherries
• 1 tbsp organic black currant powder
• 1 (15 oz) can full-fat coconut milk
• 2 tbsp maple syrup or agave syrup

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Place the frozen banana, berries, black currant powder and 1/4 can coconut milk in a food processor or high-speed blender and blend until smooth.
2. Fill each popsicle mold (about halfway depending on the mold you are using) with the banana-berry mixture and leave to set in the freezer.
3. Whisk together the coconut milk and 2 tbsp of the maple syrup, until smooth and creamy.
4. Pour the coconut-maple cream over the banana-berry purée layer.
5. Swirl it around the mold to make pretty patterns.
6. Freeze for 4 hours or until set.
7. To remove the popsicles submerge the bottom of the popsicle mold (up to the edge of the top) in room-temperature water for 10-15 seconds, then gently pull to release.
