4 Ingredient Mango Coconut Popsicles
Yes. I’m aware that it’s officially pumpkin spice season and here I am… posting a recipe about mango coconut popsicles. But listen.. summer comes late AF on the east coast and we’re still getting some incredible summer weather. So I’m going to hold on to every last summer pleasure I can.
I originally started making these popsicles for my daughter but to be completely honest, I mostly steal them all now.
Okay, here’s a bit of a mom post for all you moms out there:
Kids catch colds. They catch them ALL. THE. TIME. My daughter has had pneumonia, croup, chest infections.. you name it. And of course, we’re always recommended a cold popsicle to help sooth a sore throat. But those ones you buy at the grocery store are FILLED with sugar. Even those “real fruit” ones are filled with nasty chemicals and syrups you just don’t want to be feeding to your kid – especially when they’re sick.
I started making her these and she absolutely loves them. It’s a simple recipe with simple ingredients. Ya know, something I can feel good about giving her. Basically a frozen fruit smoothie. Lily gets so excited when I tell her she can have one of these popsicles for a treat or dessert. Little does she know I’m just happy she’s actually getting REAL fruit (unlike those “real fruit” pops you can buy at the store)
But again… I find myself stealing these all the time. I feel like a child but they’re just such a refreshing treat on a hot day!
Mango Coconut Popsicles
2 Bananas
2 Mangos
1.5 cups coconut milk
2/3 cup yogurt**
**I like to use greek vanilla or coconut yogurt for these. Regular or any dairy-free fave also works!
Simply blend the ingredients in a blender and pour into popsicle molds! Freeze and enjoy!
I mean… It doesn’t get much easier than that, does it? These are the popsicle molds I found on amazon. They come with 50 wooden sticks, a cleaning brush, and are so easy to use. Most importantly, it’s easy to get the pops out. No running them under hot water to loosen up!
I hope you enjoy!
