Ingredients and substitutions
- Plums – If you can’t find canned plums in the store, you can substitute the syrup with 1 cup of water and 1/2 cup of sugar. Stew the plums in the sugar syrup for 15 minutes in a saucepan on medium heat until the sugar is fully dissolved and the plums are softened. Adjust the sweetness as needed.
- Cinnamon – Ground cinnamon adds depth and warmth to the popsicles and complements. Cardamom, ginger, or a pinch of allspice make delicious additions too.
- Lemon – The lemon juice adds some freshness to the plums. You can add the zest of 1/2 lemon for a more zingy flavor. Limes would work too.
My top 3 plum popsicle tips
- Remove stones: Make sure you remove all stones from the canned plums before adding them to the blender – speaking of experience here!
- Single container: Freeze the blended plum mixture in a single freezer-proof container to enjoy as a granita, or sorbet.
- Double batch: Meal prep these popsicles and prepare a larger batch to enjoy this sweet treat throughout the summer.
