Summary
Cooling, creamy and crunchy is what you get when you blend banana and cacao and freeze it with a sprinkle of nuts before freezing it into an oh-so-yummy popsicle! Pro tip: Make extra so you have plenty for yourself and enough to share with family and friends.
Ingredients
Directions
Add the banana, cacao, date paste or maple syrup, plant-based milk, and salt, if using, to a blender or food processor.
Blend until creamy.
Evenly distribute the bottom of each popsicle mold with crushed nuts. Pour the banana cacao mixture into each mold (filling it ¾, allowing room for expansion).
Sprinkle more nuts evenly over the top of each popsicle.
Freeze for at least two hours before serving.
Chef's Notes
Substitutions
Instead of peanuts, use crushed almonds, pistachios or hazelnuts.
Nut-free
Sprinkle hemp seeds, cacao nibs or toasted sunflower seeds on the popsicle instead of nuts.
Prep Ahead
Make the date paste ahead of time and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to seven days or in the freezer for up to 30.
Storage
Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to six weeks.
