Make these Citrus Banana Cream Homemade Popsicles for a fresh and tasty summer treat that your kids (and you) will love! Easy enough that the kids can help.
Hello…and I’m so glad you’re here! Up today is something I’ve never done, and I have to say it was really great fun. I made the easiest and most delicious homemade popsicles. These citrus banana cream homemade popsicles are perfect to make for kids or grandkids. They are also a great little kitchen project to make with kids as well. Older children would actually be able to make them all on their own.
How To Make
- Combine all ingredients in a blender. Blend until frothy.
- Pour into popsicle molds.
- Freeze for 4 hours. Overnight is better.
- Makes 7-8 popsicles depending on the size of your molds.

TIPS FOR SUCCESS
- This recipe can be easily doubled, and there is still be plenty of room in the blender.
- I got seven popsicles from these measurements.
- These homemade popsicles are a relatively healthy little dessert, which is also a very good thing.
- Here is the popsicle mold that I used: Norpro Ice Pop Maker.
- It came with enough popsicle sticks for two batches. When I put the lid on the mold and inserted the popsicle sticks, they slipped down quite a bit. To keep the sticks in the proper place, I attached paper clips as shown in the image below.
- I used Dannon OIKOS Orange Cream greek yogurt. They also make a key lime flavor which would be good as well…just use lime zest and juice instead of lemon.
- These are refreshing and tangy. This is the perfect summer snack, and it’s almost good for you! The yogurt adds protein, and the bananas are chuck full of potassium.
I enjoyed making these popsicles very much. It was something new and easy. It got me away from the computer, and now I have a little treat waiting for me in the freezer that will last for several days. All very good things! Speaking of refreshing recipes…I’ve also been making mint lemonade every day. My mint is growing like crazy, and it’s so nice to have it right there out my back door. If you haven’t planted mint, there is still time!

Those look delicious. The photograph is so pretty and is staged so nicely. Sure you weren’t a food stylist in a previous life? I’m going to have to order that popsicle mold. I used to make popsicles for my kids all the time when they were little. Now they are middle aged so these would be for me!
Those popsicles look so yummy and refreshing.The photos are beautiful.
Delicious looking Popsicles ! I ordered the mold, hoping for the same results. Thank you for sharing a great summer treat.
Those photos are gorgeous and the recipe looks simple enough! My 11 year old has been wanting to make popsicles so we will give these a go. Thanks!
Thank you, Ann, for sharing another great summer treat! I am new to your blog and have been really enjoying all the articles and beautiful prints. Thank you so much for sharing all these special ideas, it is very kind of you. Happy Summer!
These would be such a nice treat. They look so tasty, thanks for sharing the recipe. I’ll have to make them soon. #HomeMattersParty
Ooooo this is amazing. I need a recipe for a months time. This is just perfect. Thanks so much for sharing.
It gets hot here in the afternoons so this would be a great treat for my grandchildren, if i don’t eat them all. Ha! ha! Thanks Ann.
These sound yummy! Never mind grandkids – I’m making them for myself. :-)
Love the recipe for these frozen pops. I purchased a set of molds last year and never used them. Over the winter I collected recipes and made my first batch for our Granddaughter. She loves the strawberry fruit bars, but looking at the ingredients, I wasn’t sure if they were that healthy for her. My motto, if I cannot pronounce the ingredient, do we really want it? So I pureed up some fresh berries, added honey and apple juice, put in molds and Samantha decided Grammies were better than the store bought one. So now I have made raspberry, blueberry and now I will have these.
