Strawberry-Banana Smoothie Pops

By garciamoss

Turn a strawberry-banana smoothie, or your favorite blended concoction, into freezer pops for a cool treat.

Ingredients

• 2 cups frozen strawberries
• 1 medium banana
• 1 cup low-fat strawberry yogurt or vanilla yogurt
• 1/2 cup cranberry juice cocktail or pomegranate juice
• 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup

Preparation

Step 1

Place strawberries, banana, yogurt, juice and maple syrup in a blender and blend until smooth. Divide among six 4-ounce freezer-pop molds. Freeze until firm, at least 6 hours.

Make Ahead Tip: Freeze for up to 3 weeks. | Equipment: six 4-ounce freezer pop molds (see Tip)

Tip: If you don’t have your freezer pop molds, divide the smoothie among small paper or plastic cups instead. Freeze until very thick, but not completely frozen, 1 to 2 hours. Insert frozen-treat sticks and continue freezing until completely firm, 4 to 5 hours more.
