Tips
- Use Very Ripe Bananas: The riper your bananas, the sweeter your lollies will be. If your bananas are getting too ripe, it’s the perfect time to make these!
- Smooth Consistency: For a smooth and creamy texture, make sure to blend the ingredients thoroughly.
- Add a Little Vanilla: If you want to enhance the flavour, a splash of vanilla extract can elevate the sweetness naturally, without adding any sugar.
- Add Some Texture: For extra crunch or texture, consider adding some crushed nuts or seeds (like chia or sunflower seeds) to the mixture before freezing.
- Smooth Removal: To easily remove the lollies from the mould, run warm water over the outside of the mould for a few seconds.
- Perfect for Meal Prep: Make a big batch and store them in an airtight container for a refreshing treat whenever you need it!
Swaps
Peanut Butter: For a nut-free option, try using sunflower seed butter or cashew butter. If you’re looking for a lighter version, you can substitute with coconut yogurt or almond yogurt (but it will result in a much icier lolly.
Soya Milk: If you prefer a different milk, almond milk, coconut milk, or oat milk are great alternatives that will still give you that creamy texture.
Add-ins: For some fun texture or flavour variations, try adding cacao nibs, shredded coconut, or chopped dark chocolate into the mixture before freezing. You could also add a spoonful of coconut cream for extra richness.
Storage
Freezer: Keep the lollies in their moulds and place them in the freezer. They will stay fresh for up to 2 weeks.
Defrosting: If you want to enjoy them soft, let them sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before eating.
