Makes: 8
Prep: 15 mins + overnight freezing
Ingredients:
- 4 large bananas (Cavendish)
- 1½ cups thick Greek yoghurt
- 2 large mangoes, peeled, fruit chopped
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 200g white chocolate, melted
- 2 tablespoons hundreds and thousands
Method:
- Peel and roughly chop bananas. Place into a snap lock bag. Freeze for 4 hours or overnight.
- Place frozen bananas into food processor. Process until finely chopped. Add the mango, yoghurt and honey. Process until smooth.
- Divide the mixture between 8 plastic cups, insert a paddle pop stick into each. Cover and freeze overnight.
- Remove the yoghurt pops from the cups. Drizzle with white chocolate and sprinkle with hundreds and thousands. Serve.
Tips:
- When fresh mangoes are not available, replace with 1 cup frozen Australian mango or 250g fresh or frozen strawberries or raspberries, pureed.
- Once frozen, wrap the pops either in or out of the cups tightly with plastic wrap to prevent freezer burn. They will keep up to 4 weeks in the freezer.
