Chocolate Banana Popsicles with Kefir

  • Author: joshisbaking
  • Prep Time: 10 Min.
  • Chill Time: 3-4 Hours
  • Total Time: 3-4 Hours with Chill Time
  • Yield: 8 Mini or 4 Regular-Sized Popsicles 1x

Description

Easy, 5-ingredient and kefir-packed chocolate banana popsicles! 


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup Plain Whole Milk Kefir (from Lifeway Kefir)
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 large ripe banana, cut into smaller pieces
  • Optional: extra chocolate to melt/drizzle overtop + pre-shaved cacao nibs

Instructions

  1. Place all of your ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.
  2. Pour the mixture into your popsicle molds and insert your popsicle sticks (I made 8 mini popsicles with the mold I had, so if you’re using a larger mold it may only give you about 4).
  3. Freeze for at least 3-4 hours or overnight. Once fully frozen, remove from the molds, drizzle with a bit of melted chocolate and top with pre-shaved cacao nibs (optional, but delish). Enjoy!

Notes

  • I used chocolate melts to drizzle and pre-shaved cacao nibs to top my popsicles with! You could easily dip these fully in chocolate, drizzle with caramel, or even enjoy as-is. No matter which way you decide to go you won’t be disappointed!
  • Definitely give these at least 3-4 hours to fully freeze or they’ll still be soft to touch. I let mine freeze overnight for that perfect popsicle bite!
  • Don’t skip out on the Lifeway Kefir! It’s packed with protein and probiotics, making these popsicles one healthy little treat. Great to make for those with kiddos!
