Tips & Variations:
- If you’re unable to find digestive biscuits, graham crackers are a great alternative, but you may need to add about 1 tablespoon of sweetener!
- Sweetener: Feel free to completely omit the honey if blueberries are sweet are want a less sweet popsicle.
- Make sure to remove most of the liquid, otherwise, the compote will be too liquidy.
- Variations: Feel free to replace the blueberries with your favorite fruit like strawberries, raspberries, or even mangos!
- For easy removal of the popsicles from the mold, simply run warm water for 15-30 seconds.
- Storage: Can be stored for up to 1 month in the freezer without getting freezer burns. Make sure to individually wrap each popsicle with cling wrap or parchment paper, then store it in a freezer-safe bag.
