Supports Healthy Skin and Immunity

Juicy peaches are rich in vitamins A and C, which help promote glowing skin and strengthen your immune system, all while adding natural sweetness and vibrant flavor.

Aids Muscle Recovery and Keeps You Satisfied

Vanilla protein powder provides a plant-based protein boost that supports muscle recovery and helps you stay full longer, making these popsicles a nutritious and satisfying treat.

Promotes Heart Health

Almond milk is low in calories and high in vitamin E, contributing to heart health and providing a creamy texture that enhances the popsicles' overall taste and nutritional value.

• Fresh vs. Frozen Peaches: Fresh peaches work great, but if peaches aren’t in season, frozen peaches will give you the same delicious results and a thicker texture.
• Customize Your Popsicles: Feel free to add a handful of blueberries or raspberries to the mixture for an extra burst of flavor and color.
• Make It Creamier: For a creamier texture, use a bit of Greek yogurt or coconut yogurt in place of some of the almond milk.
• Garnish Ideas: For a touch of extra flair, you can sprinkle a little granola on top before freezing or dip the finished popsicles in melted dark chocolate and freeze for a minute.

These Vanilla Peach Protein Popsicles are a delightful way to stay cool and nourished during the summer months. They’re easy to make, full of flavor, and provide a satisfying dose of protein. Perfect for kids and adults alike, these popsicles are sure to become a staple in your summer treats arsenal. Enjoy every refreshing, creamy bite! 🍑✨
