I love having cold snacks for my kids when it’s hot outside. A great alternative to ice cream and popsicles are these Frozen Banana Pops! These are a simple treat that’s perfect for a hot day. They’re also an excellent way to sneak in some fruit into your kids’ diet!
The fun thing about frozen banana pops is that you can add sprinkles, making them even more fun to eat!! This is like a healthier version of a banana split. You can even skip the chocolate and sprinkles, and just eat a frozen banana. They’re so good! They’re one of my favorite summer treats, and they’re easy to come by and prepare. Plus, everyone knows that food tastes better on a stick.
