  • I used my Vitamix to really liquefy my apples, but if your blender isn’t so powerful, you could try using applesauce instead, or just go with straight cider. You can use spiced cider, or not. Also, the amounts you’ll need will depend on how big your popsicle molds are. Basically, just play around with it to suit your needs. Here’s what I did.

Ingredients

  • makes about 8 two-ounce popsicles
  • 2 small apples, cored (and peeled, if you want)
  • about 1 1/2 cup apple cider
  • 8 cinnamon sticks or craft sticks
  • cinnamon, nutmeg, other spices, optional

Instructions

  1. Blend cider and apples (and spices, if using) until smooth. Pour into BPA-free popsicle molds. Freeze with cinnamon sticks. To hold the sticks upright: either freeze for a while until the mixture is icy enough to support the sticks, or you can cover the mold with plastic wrap or aluminum foil, then push the sticks through (the wrap will hold them in place). I did the first option, since my molds were deep and cinnamon sticks relatively short.
  2. The cinnamon adds a lovely autumnal flavor and is just a fun, seasonal twist on a regular popsicle stick. My son thought it was so cool—I just had to remind him not to try to eat the stick.
