Easy, Homemade Cherry Pineapple Popsicles are the perfect healthy treat for summer! Made with just 4 ingredients, these homemade fruit popsicles made with pineapple and frozen cherries are a low-sugar treat everyone will love!
Prepare the Pineapple Mixture. In a blender or food processor, add the pineapple chunks, half of the maple syrup, and half of the vanilla extract. Blend until the fruit is smooth and well combined. Transfer the pineapple mixture to a container or pitcher and set it aside.
Prepare the Cherry Mixture. Rinse the blender or food processor to remove any residue. Add the frozen cherries, the remaining maple syrup, and the remaining vanilla extract. Blend until the mixture is smooth and evenly blended.
Layer the Popsicles. Using a pitcher or spoon, pour a small amount of the pineapple mixture into the bottom of each popsicle mold to create the first layer. Follow with a layer of the cherry mixture, and continue alternating between the pineapple and cherry mixtures until the molds are full. (Feel free to swap the order of the fruit layers around if you’d like!)
Insert Popsicle Sticks. Insert popsicle sticks into each mold. The mixture should be thick enough to hold the sticks upright. If needed, you can freeze the molds for about 20 minutes before inserting the sticks to allow the mixture to thicken slightly.
Freeze the Popsicles. Place the popsicle molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze for approximately 2 hours, or until they are completely solid.
Enjoy. Once the popsicles are fully frozen, remove them from the molds by running warm water over the bottom of the molds for a few seconds. Enjoy your refreshing cherry pineapple popsicles!
