These homemade berry and banana popsicles are a refreshingly healthy way to satisfy your snack cravings. They call for just a few simple ingredients and take minutes to prepare. The hard part is waiting for them to freeze solid! Start with a base of buttermilk and add banana (fresh or frozen), frozen berries, and some honey or agave syrup—that’s it, there's no refined sugar in these pops. Blend everything together and freeze in a popsicle mold for a deliciously fruity treat you can enjoy any time.

Be sure to use ripe banana for these pops as it adds sweetness and gives the popsicles a creamier texture than a less ripe banana would.

Popsicle Variations
