Trader Joe's Raspberry and Vanilla Cream Bars (Dairy-free!)

These homemade Raspberry and Vanilla Cream bars are such a refreshing summer treat!

They are so easy to make and don't require a blender.

These were inspired by Trader Joe's Raspberry and Vanilla Cream Bars, except this recipe is naturally gluten-free and dairy-free, low in sugar, and still creamy and delicious.

Grab your popsicle mold and try out these healthy raspberry popsicles!

These are the perfect 4th of July popsicles, or really perfect for those hot summer days.

I am all about an easy summer treat, similar to my Keto Key Lime 'Pie', this is fast, simple, and easy to make.

Ingredients

• frozen raspberries - thawed. You could absolutely use fresh raspberries for this recipe, but there is nothing wrong with using frozen!
• a fresh orange - we use the juice and zest, you could sub a splash of orange juice with pump instead.
• vanilla pudding mix - I like to use a sugar free version.
• almond milk- or any dairy free milk

See recipe card for quantities.

Optional: adding mini white chocolate chips would be delicious! (be sure to use dairy-free version if you need that)

How to make Raspberry and Vanilla Cream Bars:

In a large bowl microwave raspberries for about 40 seconds and then slightly mash with a fork.

Stir in pudding mix, nut milk, orange juice and zest and pour into mold.

Freeze for at least 8 hours and then serve!

TIP for the best way to remove raspberry popsicles from the mold: run warm water over popsicle mold to gently ease out popsicle.

Substitutions for Raspberry and Vanilla Cream Bars:

• Raspberry- instead of raspberries try frozen blueberries or mixed berries.
• orange- if you don't have an orange try another citrus like lemon or lime.
• nut milk- if you don't need to make it dairy free you can use any milk of choice!

Variations

If you'd like to add more fruit to this popsicle, add anything fresh or frozen you have on hand!
To make this popsicle protein loaded, add a few scoops of vanilla protein powder to your pudding mix.

Equipment

To make these popsicles you need to start with a popsicle mold, I found a re-usable mold from Whole Foods.

I highly recommend purchasing a citrus zester to have on hand, or use a cheese grater when you're in a pinch!

Storage

Keep these popsicles in the freezer for up to 30 days.
