A dollop of yogurt keeps these pops from being too icy, and we love the way the ginger adds a little spice. Ingredients:
4 cups cubed seedless watermelon (from about half a 5-pound watermelon) |
1/4 cup plain 2% fat or whole greek yogurt |
1 teaspoon finely grated peeled ginger |
pinch of kosher salt |
1/3 cup (or more) sugar |
1 tablespoon (or more) fresh lime juice |
Directions:
1. Purée watermelon, yogurt, ginger, salt, 1/3 cup sugar, and 1 tablespoon lime juice in a blender until smooth. Add more sugar and lime juice, if desired. (Purée will taste less sweet once frozen, so err on the sweet side.) 2. Divide purée among ice-pop molds. Freeze until mixture begins to set around edges of molds, 45-60 minutes. Stir mixture in molds to blend; insert sticks. Freeze until solid, at least 4 hours. Dip molds briefly in hot water to release paletas. 3. DO AHEAD: Paletas can be made 1 week ahead. Keep frozen. |
