When you make your own Popsicles, you can enjoy super healthy and totally guilt free treat. They are many differ flavors you can chose, but if you like Matcha, then this is the recipe for you. However, even if you are not familiar with Matcha, I am convinced that you will love it.
Matcha powder is another superfood with its origins in Japan and the Tea Ceremony. It is made from high-quality tea, rich in potent source of nutrients and antioxidants called polyphenols responsible for protection against heart disease and cancer, it also helps with blood sugar regulation, blood pressure reduction and anti-aging.

MATCHA POPSICLES
Matcha Fruit Popsicles dipped in the Chocolate & Pistachios
Vegan – Gluten Free – Refined Sugar Free
INGREDIENTS FOR 6
• Fully ripe banana
• Mango 1
• Kiwi 1
• Coconut milk ½ cup (for the best results use chilled Thai brand & scoop only the thick part on top of the can)
• Matcha powder ½ tsp
• Good quality dark semisweet chocolate 1 1/2 cup (melted above the steam)
• Raw pistachios (hulled and grind)
• Food processor
• Popsicles molds
• Wooden sticks
• Parchment paper
• Tray
PROCESS
• Blend all the fruits, coconut cream & Matcha in a blender.
• Slowly and gradually fill your Popsicle molds while gently taping the molds to remove air bubbles.
• When ready, slowly and gently insert the wooden sticks.
• Place them into a freezer for 4 hours.
• From the freezer, place them into refrigerator for couple of hours until they are easy to pull out of the molds.
• In the meantime, melt the chocolate above the steam.
• Remove from the heat and wait few minutes before you start dipping.
• Line your tray or cutting board with parchment paper and place your pistachios on the side.
• Start dipping each Popsicle into the chocolate. Use a spoon to add more layers to make sure the pistachios will stick. Quickly sprinkle the chocolate with pistachios, because the chocolate cools down fast on the cold surface. Don’t worry if it’s not perfect.
• Place each Popsicle on your tray and place them back into a freezer or serve.

Thank you Melinda, they truly are and I highly recommend you to buy Matcha powder even though it's quite pricy............that's the only problem, but it will last for a long time.

I saw that one of the baker's in The Great British Baking Show used it in the episode I watched the other night. He described it as earthy. I just may get some.

Oh my these popsicles are so beautiful! They look healthy in a very alluring way... seducing me with the lovely green colour of the pistachios against the dark chocolate. I bet the texture is amazing too. This would be a great recipe to impress guests with, and since I am expecting guests next month I might just make some! The process seems quite straightforward, perhaps a little bit messy? but worth the extra effort of dipping in chocolate because it makes them look really professional! Fab entry @lenasveganliving :-)

I hope you are right...............right mow I am doing worse than month ago when I signed up. And the minnowsupprt is ignoring me :(

My advice: forget about the votes, rewards, minnowsupport, etc etc... and just do your thing. Pay attention to it all but not too much, because it can be very disheartening to spend ages on a post and get hardly any votes or money. Can start to seem like a waste of time. But honestly, in time as you build up a good reputation here and develop meaningful relationships, and people not only like but make and sometimes request your recipes, you'll feel part of something important, and you'll feel valued, and that your blog actually does affect lives to some extent. That's why Steemit is exciting, IMHO, not so much the money or status because that's unstable! Just rememeber - slow and steady wins the race :-) p.s. I hope not to sound patronising!
