Patriotic Healthy Dippin Dots

*This is top 9 allergen free and much healthier than typical ice cream. This star shape is not recommended for toddlers. There are smaller and large options on amazon to find something that’s not a choking hazard. You could also use these as “sprinkles” on top of white colored ice cream for a more festive look

Ingredients: Makes 2-4 servings

1 C Strawberries

1 C Blueberries

1 banana

1/2 tsp vanilla

Water or dairy free milk

*Supplies: Droppers, food grade silicone mat, blender or food processor

Directions:

1. Purée each fruit separately leaving the banana for last so it doesn’t oxidize and turn brown

2. Puree the fruit until you can easily suction it with your droppers. If the puree is too thick add a little water. Blueberry will need about 1/3 C of water and depending on how high powered your blender is you may need to strain it in a fine mesh strainer. Strawberry won’t require any water. Banana needed about 3 tbsp of water

3. Place the silicone mold mat on a sheet pan that will fit in your freezer. Fill the wells evenly with each fruit. You can use a toothpick to make sure you get the full star shape as shown in the video

4. freeze for at least 2 hours before serving
