Real Fruit Watermelon Pops
Ingredients
- 1/4 Seedless Watermelon (cut using 2 longways slices)
- 20 popsicle sticks (there will likely be extra)
Instructions
- Cut the ¼ watermelon piece into ¾ inch triangle slices. Note: you may have to discard or eat the end pieces. Then cut the triangles in half or into thirds to make them the desired size.
- Remove any visible seeds from the watermelon triangles.
- Insert popsicle stick through the middle of the green rind about 2 inches into the watermelon.
- Place watermelon pops onto a baking sheet. Place baking sheet into freezer and freeze for 2-3 hours before enjoying. You may need to use 2 baking sheets.
Notes
Tips and tricks:
If you are having trouble getting the popsicle sticks through the rind you can first make an incision with a knife. You can also use lollipop sticks which are easier to insert but harder for little hands to hold onto when attached to something heavy like a watermelon slice.
