Banana Berry Popsicles

After enjoying such fantastic frozen treats in New Orleans, we knew we wanted to share Munchkin’s new favorite ice pop with you!

She’s crazy about anything banana — and especially if sweet, fresh berries are involved.

I’ve been making my fair share of smoothies and ice cream lately, but nothing beats banana berry popsicles on a hot summer day!

It’s a super helpful way to use up ripe bananas when it’s too hot to turn on the oven for muffins or bread, and I love how healthy they are too.

Rich, creamy yogurt mixed with mashed bananas and swirled with sweet berries… you can easily say “yes” to ice cream for breakfast!

We can’t get enough of this banana berry ice pop recipe, and I know you’ll love it too.

Ingredient Notes and Substitutions

• Bananas – The riper they are, the sweeter your banana berry ice pops will be! The peels should be completely yellow and covered in brown freckles but still pretty firm.
  
  Avoid overly ripe bananas — when the peels are covered in large spots or completely brown and mushy. If there’s still some green on the peel, they need more time to ripen.
  
• Plain Yogurt – A creamy base that really lets the natural fruit flavor shine. Greek yogurt would work too, though it will be a bit thicker.
  
• Honey – For a touch of sweetness and to help keep the banana berry popsicles soft and creamy instead of icy and hard to eat.
  
• Blueberries – Remove any lingering stems from the berries before rinsing and drying. Pick out any shriveled or overly mushy berries before mashing.
  
• Raspberries – Look for plump berries with a deep color. They shouldn’t be shriveled or have any pale/yellowed bumps.
  
  Pick through the berries and remove any leaves, then give them a quick rinse and air dry on a paper towel.
  
• Strawberries – These should be plump and colorful as well. The deeper the color, the sweeter they will be. Avoid any that are very pale or have lots of white/yellow at the top.
  
  Pluck or slice off the leafy tops, then cut them into flat slices so they freeze evenly.

Tips and Tricks to Make Perfect Banana Yogurt Popsicles

• Mash the blueberries separately.

All you really need to do is press on each one until it bursts open so they are easier to bite into once frozen. No need to overly mash or purée them.

Do this in a separate bowl from the bananas and yogurt — you want to swirl them through the creamy mixture, not blend it all together.

• Add the berries to the popsicle molds first.

If you add them last, they’ll end up at the bottom of your banana yogurt popsicles once you turn them upright.

Spoon the yogurt mixture on top, then tap the molds on the counter so the yogurt fills in any gaps.

• Layer the ingredients for a more consistent texture.

Add a little yogurt mixture to each mold, then a handful of berries, and then more yogurt. Finish with a few more berries before tapping on the counter.

This will help the fruit sink into the yogurt layers and spread out a bit so you don’t end up with only yogurt at the base of your banana berry popsicles.

Prep Ahead

• Smash blueberries
• Slice strawberries

What You’ll Need for This Recipe

• Mixing Bowl – I like to have a variety of sizes on hand, and this set has them all.
• Ice Pop Mold – Silicone molds are ideal! This one comes with reusable sticks too.

Different Flavors to Try

Make your banana berry yogurt pops even sweeter with flavored yogurt! Vanilla would be perfect and wouldn’t change the overall color, while coconut milk yogurt is a fantastic dairy-free option.

But you can really amp up the berry flavor with strawberry, blueberry, or mixed berry yogurt.

I know kids can sometimes be picky, so feel free to stick with one berry at a time if you’d like. And if textures are a problem, blend everything together for all of the flavor in a smoother consistency.

Personally, I like a little zing with my berries, so sometimes I’ll sneak in some lemon zest or use a lemon yogurt instead. Lime would be yummy too!

Storing Banana Berry Yogurt Pops

Once they are frozen solid, remove homemade banana yogurt popsicles from the molds and wrap each in a piece of parchment paper.

Stack them in a freezer-safe storage bag or airtight container, then store them in the coldest part of your freezer for 1-2 months.
