Why add chia seeds to frozen pops?
Chia pudding is magical.
As the chia seeds soak and plump up in the delicious coconut milk, it absorbs its tropical flavors.
The end result is this rich, silky pudding.
One day I made too much. Rather than store it in the fridge, I poured the chia pudding into popsicles molds and popped them in the freezer.
Frozen chia? Is that good? YES. It’s amazing. Slushy kiwi slices, tropical coconut, all frozen in a portable stick?
The rest is history. I’ve been making these chia popsicles will all sorts of fruits.
Mix it up with pineapples, strawberries, or mango. I can’t wait for stone fruit season so I can experiment with peaches, plums, and apricots!
Summer… are you here yet?

Hi there! What do you mean by “1/4 + 1 Tbsp cup chia seeds” – is it 1/4 cup PLUS 1 Tablespoon? Thanks!!
Thanks for catching that! It’s 1/4 cup + 1 Tbsp of chia seeds.
Can i use other types of sweetener… like sugar or honey?
Hi! Your recipe seems really delicious to me. I’ll definitely try this!
Thanks! I hope you like it!
i’m allergic to coconut . would canned condensed milk work ? ? ? these look AWESOME ! ! ! really want to give them a shot . . . .
No, canned condensed milk would be too sweet. It would throw off the balance. If you can’t consume coconut, you can try other alternative milks but the resulting popsicles may not be as creamy.
I wonder if using homemade cashew cream (instead of coconut milk) would provide creaminess and not get icy. Will have to try this – thank you for sharing the recipe!
I haven’t tried it with cashew cream. The creaminess and ice would be determined by the amount of fat in the cashew cream. If you try it out, please let me know how it works! :)
these look so great!! does almond milk work too or just coconut milk?
Thanks Hannah! You can use almond milk, but the popsicles won’t be as creamy. With almond milk, they will be a bit icy.
Is it canned coconut milk or canned coconut cream?
Under the ingredients, it is listed as canned coconut milk. However, if you’d like creamier popsicles, you can use coconut cream.
These look really delicious!! Is it possible to substitute the coconut milk with cows milk, or will it ruin the recipe? Or is it possible to just use soy milk for the whole recipe?
Thanks Jocelyn! If you substitute the coconut milk, the popsicles will not be as creamy. If you use cow’s milk or all soy milk, the popsicles will be very icy.
These scream summer! Saving coconut milk for skinny days is supper smart! Can’t wait to make! Thanks!
i have a problem where i buy a bunch of kiwis, then neglect them until they’re too mushy because i’m too lazy to peel them, and suddenly have to figure out what to do with 7 kiwis at once (besides composting them!). will have to try these out next time that happens (:
Once the kiwis start getting soft, keep in the fridge to make them last longer! :)
