Banana Popsicles 110Kcal Snack

I love making healthy frozen treats, especially my own popsicles. After sharing my peanut butter popsicles, avocado popsicles, and strawberry banana popsicles, it’s time for a pure banana flavor!

Ingredients and Substitutions

All you need are:

Ripe Bananas or fresh yellow bananas, but the riper, the sweeter the popsicles will be. Unsweetened Almond Milk or oat milk, or any non-dairy milk you like. Yogurt of Choice – I like Greek Style coconut yogurt with banana, and it also adds a creamy texture. Vanilla Extract – For additional flavors. Maple Syrup – Or any other liquid sweetener such as coconut nectar or rice malt syrup.

How To Make Banana Popsicles

It’s very easy to make banana popsicles with only five ingredients. To make popsicles, add all the ingredients to the jug of a high-speed blender or bowl of a food processor and blend until smooth. Fill a 10-mold popsicle stand with the batter. Freeze the banana ice pops overnight.

Decoration

The next day, you can decorate the popsicles or keep them plain. To make a peanut butter shell, add peanut butter, maple syrup, and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 3-45 seconds until fully melted. Place the melted peanut butter into a tall glass. Remove the popsicles from the freezer and place the plastic mold under warm water. Pull the popsicle out of the mold pulling the popsicle stick in one direction and the plastic mold in the other. Dip the frozen banana popsicle into the melted peanut butter to just cover the top. Sprinkle some of the below ingredients to decorate:

Crushed peanuts Toasted coconut Dried banana – crushed

Storage Instructions

These popsicles store very well in their mold for up to 3 months. If you coated the popsicles with a shell, store them in an airtight container in the freezer.

Flavors Variations

This recipe is very versatile, and you can play with flavor by changing the fruit ratio, milk, or adding nut butter. Some of the great flavors you can make are:

Almond Banana Popsicles – add 2-3 tablespoons of almond butter to the batter and add sliced almonds on the shell. Peanut Banana Popsicles – add 2-3 tablespoons of peanut butter to the mixture and cover the shell with crushed peanuts. Strawberry Banana Popsicles Avocado Banana Popsicle – swap 2 bananas for a ripe avocado and boost the healthy fat content of your treat. Chocolate Banana Popsicles – add 3 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder to the batter and use my peanut butter popsicle recipe to make the chocolate shell.

Allergy Swaps

Below I listed the most frequent allergy swaps you may need for this recipe:

Nut-Free – You can use any nut-free plant-based milk like oat milk or coconut milk instead of almond milk. Yogurt-Free – You can use canned coconut cream as a replacement for yogurt. Coconut-Free – Pick a yogurt made from soy milk, almond milk, or oat milk. Sugar-Free – Use monk fruit-sweetened maple syrup for a natural sugar-free sweetener or erythritol or allulose.
