Summer is in full swing, which means my cart runneth over with all sorts of yummy frozen treats from the grocery store. I made a batch of these Banana and Berry popsicles last night after we discovered that our freezer was sadly lacking. When I was growing up we always had homemade popsicles in the freezer but it had been awhile since I made a batch for my own kids.
It’s easy to make a batch of beautiful, delicious and healthy Banana Berry Ice Pops. There’s nothing better than a freezer stocked full of homemade frozen treats when a heat wave hits!
Banana Berry Ice Pops
* summer fruits, sliced thinly (we used strawberries and bananas)
*small berries (we used fresh blueberries)
* pure white grape juice (pineapple juice or lemonade would work too)
* popsicle moulds
Instructions:
1. Line popsicle moulds with the sliced fruit. Place the berries in the centre of the moulds to hold everything in place nicely.
2. Fill the popsicle moulds with pure white grape juice. Pour gently and slowly to keep the fruit in place.
3. Pop the tops onto the moulds and put them in the freezer overnight.
4. When you need a cool treat, run the moulds under some warm water and gently pull the popsicles out.
These pops look delicious. They will make a perfect after school treat. The weather is very hot for Wisconsin…we are not used to 90 degrees days in September.
Trade ya… we woke up to -1C this morning. Almost time to find the warmer hats and
These look like a fun treat to keep you cool during these hot summer days! I think my four year old would probably love snacking on one of these! We’ll have to give them a try.
