Melona Bar Ingredients
- 4 cups honeydew chunks
- 1/3 cup raw cane sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened plant milk (soy milk recommended)
Instructions
- Blend the base: Add the honeydew chunks, raw cane sugar, and unsweetened plant milk to a blender. Blend until completely smooth. Taste and adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar if needed, since honeydew melon sweetness can vary.
- Churn the mixture: Pour the blended mixture into an ice cream or sorbet maker and allow it to thicken to your desired consistency. If you prefer a spoonable ice cream, you can enjoy it at this stage.
- Shape into classic Melona bars: After the ice cream is ready, prepare a small square mold (such as a plastic Medjool date container). Pour the mixture into the mold and smooth the surface with a spatula.
- Insert popsicle sticks: Cut holes on one side of the mold and insert popsicle sticks through the holes. Freeze the mold until the ice cream is solid.
- Unmold and shape: Once frozen solid, break down the mold and discard it. Slice the frozen ice cream into popsicle shapes and shave off the sides to create nice rectangular bars.
- Alternative in popsicle molds: For ease, pour the mixture into your favorite silicone popsicle molds, insert sticks, and freeze for at least 2-3 hours until completely set.
Notes
- Adjust the sugar amount based on the sweetness of your honeydew melon.
- Using silicone molds makes removing the bars easier.
- If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can freeze the blended mixture and stir every 30 minutes until semi-frozen, though texture may differ.
- The recipe is naturally vegan and dairy-free, great for plant-based diets.
