Beets are rich in nutrients, including fibers for healthy digestion and folate, which is an essential nutrient for fueling a child’s development, especially in these early stages of life.
Moreover, beets contain carotenoids, phenols, and many other plant nutrients that act as antioxidants and support cellular health. These antioxidants play a crucial role in enhancing your kids’ immune system and protecting their bodies against harmful free radicals. You can reap all these benefits by adding Nia Pure Natures Organic Beetroot Powder.
Ingredients
Makes ∼6 bars
- 2 cups mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries)
- 1/4 cup maple syrup or agave syrup (adjust according to sweetness preference)
- 2 teaspoons Nia Pure Nature Organic Beetroot Powder
- 1 cup coconut milk or any other plant-based milk of your choice
- 1/4 cup unsweetened flaked coconut
- Popsicle molds or small paper cups
- Popsicle sticks
Recipe Preparation
Start by gathering your ingredients. You’ll need a combination of mixed berries, a medium-sized beet, maple syrup or agave syrup, Nia Pure Nature organic beetroot powder, coconut milk, and popsicle molds or small paper cups.
In a blender, add the mixed berries, chopped beet, maple syrup or agave syrup, Nia Pure Nature organic beetroot powder, and coconut milk. Blend the mixture until it becomes smooth and well combined.
Once blended, pour the mixture into popsicle molds or small paper cups. Leave a small space at the top of each mold to allow for expansion as the popsicles freeze.
Insert popsicle sticks into each mold, ensuring they stand upright in the center. If using paper cups, cover them with aluminum foil and insert the sticks through the foil.
Place the popsicle molds or cups in the freezer and let them freeze for a minimum of 4-6 hours, or until fully set. For the best results, leave them overnight to ensure they are completely frozen.
Once the popsicles are frozen, remove them from the molds or peel off the paper cups. If needed, run the molds or cups briefly under warm water to help release the popsicles easily.
Serve and enjoy your delicious and nutritious vegan berries and beets popsicles! These treats are not only refreshing but also packed with vitamins, minerals, and the added health benefits of Nia Pure Nature organic beetroot powder.
Happy Canada Day! Enjoy the deliciousness of these beet popsicles as you celebrate!
