Here’s a simple and delicious recipe for Creamy Banana & Brown Sugar Popsicles:
Ingredients:
- 3 ripe bananas
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup brown sugar (adjust according to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Popsicle molds
Instructions:
- Gather Ingredients:
- Ensure your bananas are ripe for a sweeter flavor.
- Peel and Slice Bananas:
- Peel the bananas and slice them into small, even pieces. This will make them easier to blend.
- Blend Ingredients:
- In a blender, combine the sliced bananas, Greek yogurt, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
- Blend until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.
- Taste and Adjust:
- Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness by adding more brown sugar if needed. Blend again to incorporate any additional sugar.
- Fill Popsicle Molds:
- Pour the creamy banana mixture into the popsicle molds, leaving a little space at the top for the mixture to expand as it freezes.
- Insert Sticks:
- Place the sticks into the molds, making sure they are centered. If your molds come with a cover, put it on to hold the sticks in place.
- Freeze:
- Place the popsicle molds in the freezer and let them freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until they are completely solid.
- Unmold Popsicles:
- Once the popsicles are frozen, remove them from the molds. If they’re stubborn, run the molds under warm water for a few seconds to help release them.
- Enjoy:
- Your creamy banana and brown sugar popsicles are ready to be enjoyed!
These popsicles are not only a refreshing treat but also a healthier alternative to store-bought options. Feel free to customize the recipe by adding chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or a drizzle of chocolate for an extra touch of indulgence.
