These banana fudge popsicles are a sweet, healthy, kid-friendly dessert that's perfect for summer. Try this healthy recipe to satisfy chocolate cravings!

DisclosureCreamy Fudgsicles were one of my favorite desserts as a child. Unfortunately, they contain 17 ingredients, including high fructose corn syrup, Polysorbate 80, and carrageenan. These are not the ingredients I want my kids to be eating on a hot summer day.

These homemade banana fudge popsicles are a much better option. Sweet, creamy, and full of chocolate goodness, they take just minutes to make and you can enjoy them as soon as they’re frozen. Kids won’t realize they’re eating a nutritious snack, and you won’t have to worry about chemicals in their summer treats.

And check out my other homemade ice cream recipes for more healthy summer dessert ideas!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups sliced ripe bananas (2 large bananas)
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup milk dairy or non-dairy
  • 2 tbs maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Place all the ingredients in a food processor or blender and process until smooth.
  • Transfer the mixture to popsicle molds and freeze. (I use the Tovolo Star Ice Pop Molds, which I like because they're not too big and they have a handy base that fits well in the freezer.)
  • To remove the popsicles from their molds, leave them out on the counter for a few minutes or run them under lukewarm water to loosen.

Note: A reader pointed out that this recipe is very similar to a fudge pop recipe from Chocolate Covered Katie. Great minds think alike! I hadn’t seen her recipe before. I always give credit to other recipe developers when I adapt one of their recipes, and I appreciate the same courtesy when others adapt my recipes.

    These looks so delicious. I have all of the ingredients except for maple syrup. Can I substitute honey?

    Delicious! I love this simple yet decadent (and healthy!) recipe. I make a version using a kozy shack chocolate pudding but I think I’ll try using cocoa powder next time.

        Wow, cocoa powder really amps up the chocolate flavor and is healthier than pudding! Thanks for a great pop recipe 🙂
