Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 large ripe banana, peeled, cut into chunks, and frozen
- 12 large strawberries, sliced in half
- 1/2 cup pineapple juice (or orange juice)
Instructions
- Blend Ingredients: Combine the frozen banana chunks, sliced strawberries, and pineapple juice in a blender. Blend on high speed for about 2 minutes until the mixture is completely smooth, scraping down the sides of the blender as needed to ensure even blending.
- Fill Popsicle Molds: Pour the blended mixture into your popsicle molds. If your molds have slots for sticks, place them in before freezing. If not, freeze the mixture for 2 hours first, then insert wooden popsicle sticks in the center and continue freezing.
- Freeze Until Solid: Freeze the popsicles for at least 6 more hours or ideally overnight. This ensures they are fully frozen and easy to remove from the molds.
- Remove and Serve: To remove the popsicles from the molds, run the molds under warm water briefly to loosen them. Serve immediately and enjoy this cool, fruity treat on a hot day.
Notes
- Using frozen banana chunks is key for a creamy texture and easy blending.
- You can substitute pineapple juice with orange juice for a different flavor.
- If you don’t have popsicle molds, use small paper cups and popsicle sticks as an alternative.
- For easy removal, let the popsicles sit at room temperature for a few minutes if warm water isn’t available.
- This recipe is naturally sweet and contains no added sugars, making it a healthy dessert option.
