Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 3 large ripe bananas
  • 1 box (3.4 oz) vanilla instant pudding mix
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 cup whipped topping or Greek yogurt
  • 10-12 vanilla wafers
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Peel the ripe bananas and place them in a large mixing bowl. Mash them until smooth with a few small lumps.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the cold milk and the vanilla instant pudding mix for about two minutes until slightly thickened.
  3. Gently fold the mashed bananas and vanilla extract into the pudding mixture.
  4. Incorporate the whipped topping or Greek yogurt using a spatula.
  5. Prepare popsicle molds by dropping a few crushed vanilla wafers into the bottom of each mold.
  6. Pour the mixture into the molds, leaving about half an inch of space at the top.
  7. Insert the sticks and tap the molds on the counter to remove air bubbles.
  8. Freeze for at least six hours or overnight.
  9. To release, run the molds under warm water for a few seconds and serve immediately.

Notes

Ensure to use very ripe bananas for the best sweetness. Store popsicles wrapped in parchment or plastic wrap in a heavy-duty freezer bag for up to three months.
