Banana Berry Yogurt Pops Recipes

YOGURT BANANA POPS

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or wax paper.
• Insert a popsicle stick into each halved bananas. Place the yogurt in a shallow bowl, or in individual shallow bowls if using more than one flavor. Place the toppings in another shallow bowl, or in individual bowls if using more than one kind.
• One at a time, cover the bananas first in the yogurt, then dip them in your topping of choice, rolling to coat. Place on the prepared baking sheet and repeat until all the bananas are coated. Freeze until firm, at least 1 hour. If not eating right away, you can wrap each banana pop in aluminum foil and keep frozen.

BERRY-BANANA FREEZER POPS

Steps:

• Place strawberries, yogurt and banana in blender. Cover and blend until smooth.
• Pour slightly less than 1/2 cup fruit mixture into each of ten 6- to 8-ounce freezer pop molds or paper cups. Insert stick into each pop. If using paper cups, place on cookie sheet. Freeze at least 8 hours.

FRESH FRUIT AND YOGURT ICE POPS

Steps:

• Place the mixed blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, sliced bananas, yogurt, and sugar into a blender. Cover, and blend until fruit is chunky or smooth, as desired.
• Fill paper cups 3/4 full with fruit mixture. Cover the top of each cup with a strip of aluminum foil. Poke a popsicle stick through the center of the foil on each cup.
• Place the cups in the freezer for at least 5 hours. To serve, remove foil and peel off the paper cup.

JANETTE'S BANANA YOGURT POPS

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with waxed paper. Peel the bananas and cut them in 1/2 crosswise. Insert a popsicle stick into the cut end of each banana 1/2.
• Put the yogurt and the toppings into shallow bowls. Dip the bananas first in the yogurt and then into toppings as desired. Set the bananas on the baking sheet and freeze for 30 minutes.

FROZEN BANANA LOLLIES

Steps:

• Peel the bananas and trim off the very ends if you'd like them neater. Then chop them each into 4 equal-sized chunks. Thread a strawberry onto each lolly stick first, then push on the pieces of banana.
• When all your banana pops are made lay them on a baking tray and put in the freezer, uncovered, for 1 hr.
• Put the yogurt into a tall glass or jug then dip each banana pop into the yogurt to coat (avoiding the strawberries), then place back onto the tray to refreeze until set.
• Melt the chocolate in the microwave in 30 second bursts (stirring after each blast) then pour into a mug. Dip the end piece of each banana pop in the chocolate then sprinkle over the hundreds and thousands.
• The chocolate should set pretty much instantaneously, but you can keep them in the freezer until you want to serve them for up to 1 week.

BANANA BLUEBERRY SWIRL POPSICLES

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor, puree bananas until smooth. Add yogurt, sugar, and lemon juice; pulse to combine. Remove half of the yogurt mixture; set aside.
• Add blueberries to processor, and pulse until just combined. Layer blueberry and reserved yogurt mixtures into ten 1/3 cup ice-pop molds. Using a wooden skewer, swirl the two flavors together. Insert ice-pop sticks. Transfer to freezer until frozen, about 8 hours
• Dip molds quickly in hot water to unmold.
