Apple, Pear and Apricot Popsicles

Ingredients

  • 1 medium apple, peeled, cored and chopped
  • 1 ripe medium pear, peeled, cored and chopped
  • 2/3 cup chopped dried apricots
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 2 Tbsp sugar

Instructions

  1. Put apple, pear and apricots with the water in a medium saucepan. 

  2. Add half the water, and put over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook for 15 minutes (until the fruit is soft). Stir occasionally and add extra water if the fruit is looking dry.

  3. Transfer cooked fruit to a blender. Cool slightly. Add orange juice, and blend until smooth.

  4. Taste the fruit puree. Add remaining sugar if necessary. Frozen version will be slightly less sweet than the puree.

  5. Allow puree to cool to room temperature. Pour into popsicle molds. Freeze overnight.
