These creamy frozen peach pie popsicles with a buttery graham crust offer a nostalgic and refreshing summer dessert that’s easy to make and perfect for all ages.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups fresh ripe peaches, peeled and sliced (or thawed frozen peaches)
  • 1 1/2 cups graham crackers, finely crushed
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar (for crust)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for filling)
  • 1 cup heavy cream (or full-fat coconut cream for dairy-free)
  • 1/2 cup small-curd cottage cheese, well-drained and blended smooth
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Crush graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by crushing in a ziplock bag with a rolling pin.
  2. Mix graham cracker crumbs with melted butter, 1/3 cup sugar, and a pinch of salt until mixture feels like wet sand and holds together when pressed.
  3. Press the crust mixture firmly and evenly into the popsicle molds to create a solid base.
  4. Freeze the molds for about 15 minutes to set the crust before adding the filling.
  5. Peel and slice peaches if using fresh; thaw and drain excess liquid if using frozen.
  6. In a blender, combine peaches, heavy cream, blended cottage cheese, 1/4 cup sugar, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt.
  7. Blend until completely smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
  8. Remove molds from freezer and pour or spoon the peach cream mixture over the graham crust layer, leaving space at the top for expansion.
  9. Tap molds lightly on the counter to release air bubbles.
  10. Insert popsicle sticks into the center of each mold. If molds lack holders, freeze for 30 minutes first, then insert sticks.
  11. Freeze popsicles for at least 6 hours or overnight, covering molds with plastic wrap to prevent freezer burn.
  12. To unmold, run warm water briefly over the outside of the molds and gently pull out the popsicles.

Notes

Press the graham crust firmly and freeze before adding filling to prevent sogginess. Blend cottage cheese thoroughly for smooth texture. Adjust sweetness based on peach ripeness. Tap molds to remove air bubbles. If filling is too thick, whisk in a tablespoon of milk or cream before freezing. Store popsicles tightly covered to avoid freezer burn and consume within one week for best texture.
