DIY Summer Snack

Summer can get hot so you’ll need some help cooling down. What’s better than a yummy popsicle? Not only is it delicious and chilling, but it’s healthy too! These fruit popsicles from Sally’s Baking Addiction will hit the spot and keep you cool on stifling summer days.

Ingredients:

  • 1 large ripe banana, peeled, cut into chunks, & frozen
  • 12 large strawberries, sliced in half
  • 1/2 cup pineapple juice (or orange juice)

SPECIAL EQUIPMENT

Directions:


  1. Blend all of the ingredients together on high speed until smooth - about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the blender as needed as you go.
  2. Pour the mixture into popsicle molds. If your popsicle mold has slots for sticks, you can insert them before freezing - if not, freeze for 2 hours, then put a wooden popsicle stick in the middle (that is what I did). Continue to freeze for an additional 6 hours or overnight - overnight is recommended for easy removal.
  3. Run popsicle molds under warm water to easily remove. Eat on a hot day. Enjoy!
