If you know me well, you know summer is my favourite season.. it’s not just a season, it’s a mindset – spending time in the sun, the long beautiful days, gardening, picnics with friends, and of course – summer treats!

These popsicles are rich, creamy, and quick to make (you just need a bit of patience while they set in the freezer..!)

It’s really fun making these with kids, or of corse, for our own inner child..!

Wait time: 5 1/2 hours
Makes 8 popsicles

Nut free Gluten free

 

Ingredients

  • 4 medium ripe bananas
  • 2/3 cup coconut milk
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup

Instructions

Blend all of the ingredients in a blender until it has a smooth and thick consistency.

Taste and adjust sweetness if desired.

Pour mixture into popsicle moulds* (leave a bit of room at the top for the popsicle stick).

Place in the freezer for half an hour, then add the popsicle sticks.

Keep in the freezer for 5 more hours, until they are solid.

Once completely frozen, run the popsicle moulds under warm water for a few seconds and gently remove the popsicles from the moulds.

If you don’t have popsicles moulds, you can use ice cube trays for mini popsicles.
