Ghost-shaped Halloween frozen banana pops made with bananas. Fun, healthy treats to make with the kids!

Ingredients

  • 4 large fresh bananas 

  • 1 cup nonfat greek vanilla yogurt

  • 2 tablespoons monkfruit sweetener or honey

  • Dark chocolate chips for eyes and for drizzle

  • 16 cake pop sticks

Directions

  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Peel 2 bananas and slice each in half, cross-wise. Slice each half in half again the “long” way, so that you have 4 long, narrow pieces total. Carefully insert a popsicle stick into the bottom of each, then place on the baking sheet.

  • Cut the pointy tips off of the 2 remaining bananas, then slice the bananas crosswise into 3 equal round “logs.” Insert a cake pop stick into one end of each, then place on the baking sheet. Freeze all banana pops for at least 30 minutes or overnight.

  • In a small bowl, mix together the yogurt and monkfruit sweetener. Once the bananas are frozen, dip them into the yogurt mixture, then return them to the lined baking sheet. Place 2 chocolate chips for eyes. Do not place the eyes on the mummies yet. Return to the freezer for at least 1 hour to allow the yogurt to set.

  • For the mummies, microwave the dark chocolate chips until melted, be careful not to burn the chocolate. With a small spoon, drizzle on top of the banana mummies Place chocolate chips for eyes. Return to the freezer until the chocolate is firm, about 30 additional minutes. When ready to serve, let the banana popsicles soften at room temperature for a few minutes. Enjoy immediately or freeze in a sealed container for up to 2 months.
