Description
Frozen Yogurt Banana Pops are a healthy and fun treat made with creamy Greek yogurt, sweet bananas, and customizable toppings. Perfect for a refreshing snack or dessert, these easy-to-make pops are both protein-packed and delicious.
Ingredients
3 bananas
3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (or flavored Greek yogurt)
2 tbsp honey (optional)
6 wood popsicle sticks
2 tbsp rainbow sprinkles (or toppings like granola, mini chocolate chips, shredded coconut, etc.)
Instructions
- Prepare the Bananas: Peel the bananas and cut them in half. Insert a popsicle stick into each half, ensuring it’s secure.
- Make the Yogurt Coating: In a bowl, mix plain Greek yogurt with honey (if using) until smooth.
- Coat the Bananas: Dip each banana half into the yogurt mixture, using a spoon to help coat evenly.
- Roll in Toppings: Roll the yogurt-covered bananas in your choice of toppings like granola, mini chocolate chips, or shredded coconut.
- Freeze: Place the coated banana pops on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze for at least 2 hours, until firm.
- Serve: Once frozen, the banana pops are ready to enjoy! Store extras in a freezer-safe container.
Notes
- Flavored Yogurt: You can use flavored Greek yogurt (like strawberry or vanilla) to skip the honey.
- Vegan Option: Use dairy-free yogurt (coconut or almond yogurt) for a vegan-friendly treat.
- For a creamier coating, add a small amount of coconut oil to the yogurt mixture.
- For a chocolatey twist, dip the frozen pops in melted chocolate after the yogurt sets and refreeze.
