Cool off during the hot summer months by whipping up a batch of these banana and peanut butter fudgesicles made with coconut milk. They are a healthy frozen treat that kids (and adults!) will love!
Ingredients
Banana & Peanut Butter Fudgesicles:
- 6 bananas frozen
- 8 oz Greek yogurt* plain or vanilla
- 1/3 cup peanut butter
- ½ cup cocoa powder regular
- ½ cup canned coconut milk full fat
- 2 Tbsp honey, agave nectar or maple syrup
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Dipping Chocolate:
- ¼ cup cocoa powder
- 2 Tbsp coconut oil melted
- 3 Tbsp honey, agave nectar or maple syrup
- 1/4 cup roasted peanuts
Instructions
Banana & Peanut Butter Fudgesicles:
- Allow bananas to thaw at room temperature for 30 minutes before beginning.
- Place all fudgesicle ingredients in a food processor. Process for 2-3 minutes, or until completely smooth. Transfer contents to a gallon-sized zip-top bag. <--This ensures easy filling of your popsicle tray!
- Fill each cavity of a 10-count popsicle tray with equal amounts of the fudgesicle liquid. Freeze fudgesicles for 10 minutes and then place popsicle sticks into each fudgesicle.
- Freeze fudgesicles for at least 6 hours, or overnight, before serving.
- Dipping Chocolate:
- Just before serving, take fudgesicles out of the freezer and let sit at room temperature for 5 minutes.
- Combine ¼ cup cocoa powder, 2 tablespoons coconut oil and 3 tablespoons sweetener in a medium-sized bowl and whisk to combine. Make sure dipping chocolate stays warm to ensure easy dipping of the fudgesicles.
- Run popsicle tray under warm water for 10-15 seconds to help loosen up the fudgesicles. Remove fudgesicles, one at a time, and dip each into the dipping chocolate. Sprinkle with peanuts and enjoy!**
