How to make homemade banana yogurt popsicles?

Tips and techniques

- Adjust maple syrup or honey- According to your sweetness preference.
- Be sure to taste-test the mixture- Before spooning mixture into molds to make sure the cinnamon flavor and sweetness is to your liking.
- The number of servings you get- From this recipe will depend on the size of mold you are using.
- Greek yogurt can be replaced- With regular yogurt but your they will not be as creamy.
- To release treats from mold- Run them under warm water to loosen.
Recipe FAQs
It's difficult to make them without some kind of mold. If you have ice cube trays, though, you could make mini ones. Otherwise, I'd say just add more milk and make it into a smoothie if no molds are available.
I recommend using pure maple syrup or honey to keep a smoother consistency, but granulated sugar will do the job.
Although you can use these, I don't recommend it, because they get hard and difficult to bite into when frozen.
Storage
- Make ahead- These can be made up to 1 month in advance if kept in the freezer.
- Room temperature- These will obviously melt at room temperature, so not recommended.
- Refrigerate- The fridge is not cold enough to keep these firm, so this is also not recommended.
- Freeze- These can be kept in their molds or wrapped and sealed individually in the freezer for up to 1 month.
