Banana Pops
Whether it’s summer, spring, winter or fall, any dessert recipe that doesn’t require turning on the oven is a winner.
That’s why we love these classic treats, which get bonus points for also being easy to make, kid-friendly, and healthy.
Basically, you just dip bananas in really good dark chocolate, add crunchy, salty almonds or peanuts, freeze, and enjoy.
If you’ve got freezer space, you can also make a big batch of them and have them ready for unexpected play dates.
Ingredients
Directions
- Peel bananas and cut in half (cross-wise).
- Put popsicle stick in one end, wrap in wax paper and freeze for a few hours or overnight.
- Melt dark chocolate in microwave or over double boiler.
- Dip frozen banana stick in melted chocolate, then roll in chopped nuts and place on tray.
- Freeze for at least 30 minutes.
WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE
These healthy pops combine dark chocolate, which is rich in heart-healthy flavonoids, with bananas, a great source of potassium and fiber. Add some nuts and you’ve got a crunch and some healthy fats. Who needs those fudgy bars, anyway?
