If you let summer end without making these creamy peach pops, then you didn’t fully live this summer. Peach popsicles are a great summer dessert for the entire family to enjoy. They utilize fresh peaches, which have a lovely natural sweetness and subtle tartness. Just make sure the peaches are not overripe, or else you may have some questionably flavored peach pops. Think of these like healthier versions of creamsicles, in that they are free of dyes, added sugars, and preservatives.

The homemade almond milk is the creamy element, so make sure that you have that prepped and ready to go before you start blending the peaches. You’ll also need to acquire popsicle molds if you don’t already own them. You may not know which molds to get, but we encourage you to buy the silicone molds. Some of these molds already have the included tops so that you do not have to purchase popsicle sticks. Plus, these molds do not crack when you try to remove the peach pops from them. Just run them under a little warm water and they’ll pop right out!

If you want to get a little fancy, feel free to add some fresh peach slices to the popsicle molds. That will add another level of flavor and texture to these already delicious peach pops.

Peaches have a very short season, so we encourage you to get your hands on them right now. Squeeze as many peachy delights as you can into your diet during the summer months. Trust us when we say that you won’t regret it. This green smoothie is more like a creamy milkshake than it is a smoothie. It energizes the body and powers it with pure plant goodness. If you don’t have the time to make your own almond milk, feel free to use filtered water, although that will make it less milkshake-like. You can also use homemade cashew milk if you prefer the flavor.

This smoothie only has four ingredients: homemade almond milk, peaches, spinach, and orange. Spinach is a powerhouse of a leafy green, offering magnesium, iron, protein, fiber, folate, vitamin K, and antioxidants. The peach, which you should pit, cube, and freeze ahead of time, is the source of sweetness in this recipe. Peaches are rich in a variety of vitamins and minerals, such as fiber, vitamins & C, potassium, niacin, copper, magnesium, phosphorus, and some B vitamins. While peaches are highly impressive from a nutritional standpoint, they are purely delicious, especially during peak season.

The homemade almond milk is the ingredient that makes this smoothie taste more like a milkshake. Homemade is just better! It offers a subtle nuttiness that complements the peaches and spinach. Finally, the orange offers lots of vitamin C and a hint of sour, which is refreshing break from the sweet, succulent peaches. Make it and let us know if you like it so that we can post similar recipes!

Longer days and warmer weather can mean only one thing: cooling, sweet treats become quite heavenly. The cold is a beautiful welcome from the intense dry or humid heat, depending on where you live. The combo of chili, lime, and mango brings those summer sensations together in one cooling and delicious treat. Your taste buds get hit with a subtle heat from the chili powder, while those citrusy bits of energetic lime zest remain with you as the sweet and tropical mango coats the tongue. To create a luxurious texture and creamy undertone, you have the nutty, homemade almond milk.

There are many reasons to love this recipe, one of them being the fact that this only contains five ingredients. Unlike a mango sorbet from the grocery store, this recipe does not contain copious amounts of sugar per serving. The sweetness primarily comes from the mango, which you cube and freeze overnight prior to making this recipe. Because the lime juice and zest bring a tangy acidity and the chili brings spice, we added a touch of maple syrup. You can start with a little less maple syrup and increase the amount from there.

In order to create a more pleasant eating experience, make sure that you blend everything until smooth and creamy. You don’t want any frozen mango chunks in the sorbet! Using a high-speed blender is a possibility, but you may have an easier time creating a smooth and creamy consistency. Whichever kitchen appliance you use to make the sorbet, make sure that you scrape down the sides of the processor/blender to fully incorporate all the ingredients. When ready to serve, feel free to dust with some chili powder or add a squeeze of lime.

Don’t want to make a smoothie on the raw vegan diet? There are other options, like chia pudding, that change up raw vegan breakfast game. Not to mention, chia pudding is an incredibly filling dish that is highly versatile. Given that blackberries are in season during summer, we decided to make this recipe with fresh blackberries. If you don’t have access to fresh blackberries, feel free to use frozen blackberries, so long as they are free of added sugars and preservatives. We just recommend that you thaw them prior to blending with the other ingredients.

One ingredient that will catch your palate by surprise is the freshly grated ginger. It’s a little kick that beautifully complements the sweet and tart blackberries. If you have an aversion to ginger, for some strange reason, feel free to omit it from the recipe. It is highly beneficial for the body, though, offering lots of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties. All of those active compounds work to enhance immune function, but the blackberries also contain beneficial antioxidants that aid immunity. The choice is yours, regarding ginger.

One last thing to note: you do not have to use homemade almond milk if you do not enjoy almond milk. You can make your own cashew milk, pecan milk, walnut milk, or even sunflower seed milk if you prefer those varieties. Just make sure that you do not use store bought nut or seed milks for the chia pudding. Most store bought varieties contain added sugars, thickening agents, and preservatives.

For anyone looking to take their breakfast game to healthier heights, look no further than overnight oats. This is a simple, nourishing dish that is great for busy professionals, health enthusiasts, and families alike. An overnight oats recipe typically contains lots of fiber, protein, healthy fats, complex carbohydrates, and other vitamins and minerals, making it a great dish to begin the day. Not to mention, you do all the prep work at night so that your breakfast is ready to go whenever you need it in the morning. Because it is in a jar or bowl, you can take it to go if you are in a rush.

This recipe combines the indulgent, slightly bitter flavor of raw cacao powder with a handful of other nutrient-dense ingredients, including almond milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and optional toppings. Creating this overnight oats recipe is a fairly straightforward process. Before you prep any of the ingredients, though, make sure that you have a mixing bowl, measuring cups and spoons for accuracy, a whisk or mixing utensil, and mason jars or airtight containers for storage. Once you have your kitchen essentials, you can prepare the overnight oats.

Begin with rolled oats and whisk in your unsweetened almond milk. The liquid works to hydrate the oats and create a creamy consistency. Incorporate the cacao powder, which is crucial for the chocolatey flavor. It also gives the overnight oats a generous boost of antioxidants. Chia seeds work to thicken the oats, while adding valuable omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and protein. Finally, the vanilla extract adds another dimension of flavor, complementing the natural sugars in the maple syrup.

What do you need to make one of the best seed milks you’ve ever tasted? Two ingredients, although we added a few extra just to enhance the flavor. Hemp milk is quick and easy to make, and the best part is that you don’t have to strain it like you would almond milk or cashew milk. It is smooth, creamy, and rich, making it a great choice for smoothies, baking, or even cooking. You could even take it to the next level and make a hemp cream, but we don’t have time for that recipe today.

If you have never had hemp milk, you are probably wondering what it tastes like. It has a similar nutty flavor to almond milk, but is creamier than both almond milk and soy milk. Hemp milk also exhibits subtle earthy notes, which is similar to the flavor of hemp seeds themselves. That’s why we decided to add raw agave nectar and alcohol-free vanilla extract to distract your taste buds from those earthy notes. Flavor notes aside, hemp milk is incredibly nutritious, exhibiting impressive amounts of omega-3 fatty acids. Hemp seeds are also rich in vitamin E and minerals like magnesium, phosphorus, calcium, iron, and potassium.

Hemp seeds are very tender, which means that they break down easily during the blending process. No soaking required to soften them! Simply add the hemp hearts and other ingredients to the blender, blend, and serve! You don’t need a nut milk bag or cheesecloth because there is no pulp!

Popsicles may be the most enjoyable frozen treats for kids, but you can refresh your palate as an adult with these desserts as well. Nothing cools you off like a frozen treat from the freezer on a warmer spring day. Now, the weather isn’t just instantaneously hot just because spring has sprung. That said, it is warming up and there is nothing quite like the newest crave-able popsicle straight out of your kitchen.

Allow us to introduce you to our raw vegan cantaloupe popsicles! Perfectly cleanse-approved and undeniably delicious, these popsicles are based on creamy melon bars, which are commonly made with honeydew. Cantaloupe, however, is a little creamier, and the texture of these pops is more akin to a creamsicle. The only difference is that these popsicles contain three ingredients, not 45 mysterious ingredients, many of which you cannot even pronounce. You can truly taste the difference, and you’ll feel the difference, too!

When it comes to making your own popsicles, we recommend that you use silicone molds. The classic plastic popsicle molds make it difficult to get the popsicles out. Silicone molds make this process so much easier, especially if you run the molds under a little warm water to aid the removal process. Just make sure that the popsicles are completely frozen before you try to remove them. This typically takes about four to six hours, but may require more time. Once you finish your cleanse, you can use coconut milk in place of homemade almond milk. The coconut milk yields a creamier consistency.

The persimmon is a fall and winter fruit (available from October to February) that is uniquely plump and sweet. It is an underrated fruit, primarily because a lot of people ignore them in the grocery store. They know what the fruit looks like, but since they don’t know what to do with it, the fruit remains in the store. For those who love persimmons and have countless recipes, we applaud your culinary knowledge and skills. If you are familiar with persimmons, then you know they are not for everyone, especially, kids, but this smoothie may change the way the little ones feel about the unique fruit.

If you are new to persimmons, it can be tricky to determine their ripeness. Just like other fruits, persimmons taste best when you allow them to fully ripen. Hachiya persimmons take a little longer to ripen than Fuyu persimmons, which you will want to buy for this recipe. Many people think that Fuyu persimmons have a sweeter flavor profile and that they are less astringent than Hachiya persimmons. A Fuyu persimmon is ripe when it is a little squishy, but still slightly firm to the touch. Firm Hachiya persimmons are very tart, and only sweeten up once they fully ripen.

As far as flavor goes, Fuyu persimmons have a mild taste with a honey-like flavor. You can eat them raw, removing the tops and the skin before slicing them up. Just make sure to discard any large seeds, especially before you blend them into this smoothie. The persimmons are the only fruit or vegetable in this smoothie and they are slightly sour, the homemade almond milk, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and lemon juice will balance that tartness. We hope you (and the kids!) love this simple persimmon smoothie. It’s definitely one for the books that is very easy to make.

You can have your raw vegan cake and it too! And with raw vegan frosting, no less! If you have perused our dessert section, you know that we have several raw vegan carrot cake recipes. We have bars, bites, balls, and a full cake in there, and this maple cashew cream frosting would be the perfect complement to any of those recipes. It is similar in flavor to a classic cream cheese frosting, which pairs beautifully with carrot and red velvet cake.

Cashew cream is a versatile item to have in your kitchen because you can make it sweet or savory. Use it in everything from spreads and dips to sauces, frosting, and more. If you need a dairy-free or vegan option, cashew cream is great to have on hand. Honestly, you can slather this spread on anything and everything, depending on how you flavor it. Make it with savory flavors to use as a dip for raw vegetable sticks. Make it sweet, just like this maple-inspired recipe, to put on energy balls, toast, or raw vegan desserts.

Although we have this recipe pretty dialed in, you may want to tinker with it to achieve the flavor you are content with. You can adjust the amount of maple syrup, vanilla extract, and homemade almond milk to your liking. You want it to be thick, but smooth and easily spreadable. Just remember to soak the cashews in water for three to four hours to help soften them. That will make the blending process so much easier. Just don’t forget to discard the soaking liquid!

Drinking a smoothie is one of the best ways to get a healthy dose of fruits and veggies in one fell swoop. The best thing about this smoothie is that it tastes like a milkshake. It’s as though you are not even drinking something healthy, but then you see the ingredients and realize that each one exhibits impressive health benefits. This smoothie is as chocolaty as it is healthy, offering lots of protein, healthy fats, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals.

Unlike most smoothies, this chocolate creation does not have a banana base; rather it uses avocado, which enhances the creaminess. Don’t worry, though, your smoothie will not taste like a large cup of guacamole. You will not even know that the avocado is in the smoothie because the raw cacao powder, fresh raspberries, grade A maple syrup, vanilla extract, and homemade almond milk mask the avocado’s mild flavor. To help enhance the level of creaminess, we suggest that you cube the avocado and freeze it overnight. Now, some stores sell frozen avocado, which you can have while cleansing, so long as there are no preservatives or added sweeteners.

The key with this smoothie is getting the right consistency. You can always add some ice if the smoothie is too thin, or a little extra almond milk if the smoothie is too thick. Feel like you need some extra fiber in your life? Consider adding a tablespoon or less of chia seeds of flax seeds. Need it to be sweeter, add a squeeze of maple syrup at a time and taste until it reaches your desired level of sweetness. You may not even need the sweetener, but that depends on your taste preferences. The main thing is that we hope you enjoy this delicious creation.
