  • 2 ripe bananas, sliced

Sweetener

  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)

Dairy

  • 1 cup yogurt (plain or vanilla)

Others

Instructions

  1. Prepare the ingredients: Wash, hull, and slice the strawberries. Peel and slice the ripe bananas. Set aside.
  2. Blend the mixture: In a blender, combine the sliced strawberries, bananas, honey or maple syrup, yogurt, and a splash of lemon juice. Blend until you get a smooth, creamy consistency without lumps.
  3. Fill molds: Pour the blended mixture evenly into popsicle molds, leaving a little space at the top to allow for expansion during freezing.
  4. Insert sticks and freeze: Insert popsicle sticks into the molds and place them in the freezer. Freeze for at least 4 to 6 hours, or until completely solid.
  5. Unmold popsicles: To release the popsicles, hold the mold briefly under warm running water for a few seconds to loosen them.
  6. Serve and enjoy: Enjoy your homemade strawberry banana popsicles as a cool and healthy summer snack!

Notes

  • You can substitute honey with maple syrup for a vegan option.
  • Use plain or vanilla yogurt depending on your flavor preference.
  • Add a splash of lemon juice to enhance the freshness and prevent browning of bananas.
  • For creamier texture, use Greek yogurt.
  • Try adding a few fresh mint leaves to the blender for a refreshing twist.
  • Store popsicles in a sealed container to avoid freezer burn and maintain flavor.
