Description

These Cool and Creamy Banana Pudding Popsicles are a delightful and refreshing frozen dessert perfect for hot summer days. Combining ripe bananas, rich dairy ingredients, and a hint of vanilla pudding mix, these popsicles offer a smooth and indulgent treat that’s both easy to make and kid-friendly. Optional crushed vanilla wafers add an enjoyable crunchy texture. They can be customized to dairy-free versions and are an ideal no-bake sweet snack.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt
  • 1/4 cup instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup crushed vanilla wafers
  • Extra crushed vanilla wafers for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Base Mixture: In a blender, add the ripe bananas, whole milk, heavy cream, vanilla yogurt, instant vanilla pudding mix, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Blend everything together until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
  2. Add Crunchy Texture: If you want a bit of texture, gently stir in the crushed vanilla wafers by hand after blending, making sure not to break them down further.
  3. Fill Popsicle Molds: Pour the creamy banana pudding mixture evenly into popsicle molds, leaving a small space at the top to allow for expansion as they freeze.
  4. Insert Sticks and Freeze: Place the popsicle sticks into the molds and freeze for at least 6 hours, or until fully set and firm to the touch.
  5. Release and Serve: To unmold, briefly run the popsicle molds under warm water for a few seconds to loosen. Optionally, dip the tips of the popsicles in extra crushed vanilla wafers for an extra touch of crunch before serving.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free version, substitute whole milk with almond milk, heavy cream with coconut cream, and vanilla yogurt with plant-based yogurt.
  • These popsicles are best consumed within 2 weeks of freezing for optimal flavor and texture.
  • Ensure ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and creaminess without adding extra sugar.
