Instructions

Add the sliced ripe bananas, Greek yogurt, honey, and pure vanilla extract to a blender.
Blend on high speed until the mixture is very smooth and creamy, with no lumps remaining.
Pour the banana cream mixture evenly into 8 popsicle molds, leaving a little space at the top for expansion.
Insert popsicle sticks into each mold and place the molds in the freezer.
Freeze the popsicles for at least 5 hours, or until completely firm.
To unmold, briefly run warm water over the outside of each mold to release the popsicles before serving.

Tips

For stronger vanilla flavor, use vanilla bean paste or scrap the seeds from 1 vanilla bean instead of extract.
If bananas are not very ripe, increase honey slightly to ensure natural sweetness.
