Your favorite things to bake using frozen fruit

[cupcakechef]

I have a bunch of frozen fruit in my freezer right now. Mango chunks, peach slices, berries...so I was wondering what are some of your favorite things are to bake that utilize frozen fruit? I was thinking cobbler, but I wondered if any of you had some ideas to help me use that fruit that are a bit out of the box, perhaps!

My favourite thing to do with frozen fruit is smoothies! No baking involved though I love adding frozen spinach to them as well, it makes you feel like you're getting some extra goodness.

I've been doing them for breakfast - so good! I use some almond milk and fruit and sometimes some yogurt to make it a little thicker, although the frozen fruit on its own tends to make it a reasonably thick consistency! And have you tried smoothie bowls? They're fun too! Like the picture below...you basically just whizz up a smoothie like normal, actually a bit thicker than normal is good to make it easier to eat. Then just top with whatever you like (they look really pretty, I think!)

I can't believe I didn't think of popsicles...that would be fun! I'm one of those people that still likes cold treats even when it's cold outside (my husband thinks I'm a bit weird because I also love hot soup in summer...go figure!) so popsicles is a good suggestion for me! Thanks for all the tips Chester - I feel like now I have no excuse not to use up my frozen fruit!
