Makes: 8 to 10 paletas
Ingredients
-
3
ripe bananas
-
1/4
cup dark brown sugar
-
1 1/2
cups Greek yogurt
-
1/2
teaspoon lemon juice
-
1/2
teaspoon vanilla extract
-
1/2
teaspoon ground cinammon
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Individually wrap the bananas in foil, without peeling them, and roast for about 30 minutes, until soft.
- Once the bananas are cool enough to handle, peel and mash in a bowl, adding the brown sugar and stirring until it dissolves. Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor and add the remaining ingredients, plus a pinch of salt. Blend until very smooth.
- Divide the puree among ice pop molds (or paper cups with wooden sticks) and freeze until solid. Lick.
