My kids absolutely love these nourishing, wholesome home-made banana popsicles, made with coconut cream to create a wonderfully creamy taste.
Each is dipped in coconut sugar to give an incredible toffee-like coating, though they are also wonderful dipped in cacao nibs or crushed nuts for a little texture.
I have also been known to add a little cocoa to the mix for a delicious chocolate version.
The possibilities are endless really!
