If your kids are constantly asking you for a treat, this is one you can feel really good about handing them on repeat. Honestly, they’re wholesome enough to pass for breakfast — and what kid wouldn’t love that? They’re naturally sweet, perfectly creamy, and made with simple ingredients, with a boost of protein from the yogurt and a little handful of greens your kids will never notice.
These mango banana popsicles are one of those easy wins: blend, pour, freeze, done. The Greek yogurt gives them that creamy, almost froyo-like texture, while the banana and mango add just the right amount of sweetness. And the spinach? Totally invisible, but adds a little extra boost that makes your mama heart feel good. Perfect for warm afternoons, post-activity snacks, or a fun addition to your weekly meal prep.
And to make these extra fun for the kids, I highly suggest using some cute popsicle molds! I love this dinosaur mold, this classic shape, these ice cream cone pops, and this unicorn mold.
Ingredients
makes 8 popsicles (depending on size of molds)
1 ripe banana
½ cup frozen mango
½ cup Greek yogurt (I like Painterland Sisters lactose-free yogurt)
¼ cup water (or milk of choice)
1 handful fresh spinach
2 teaspoons maple syrup
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until completely smooth.
- Taste and adjust sweetness if needed (depending on how ripe your fruit is).
- Pour the mixture into popsicle molds. Insert sticks and freeze for at least 4–6 hours, or until fully set.
- To remove, run the molds under warm water for a few seconds and gently pull out.
These are the kind of snacks that check all the boxes: easy, nourishing, and something your kids will actually get excited about. Keep a batch in the freezer and you’ll always have a go-to treat ready to go!
