    These strawberry banana popsicles are the perfect blend of creamy and fruity! You need just 5 ingredients and then pop these in the freezer for a cool treat you’ll be making all summer long.

    Popsicles with fresh strawberries and bananas.

    Does it get much better or more fun than a delicious fruity popsicle on a hot day? Indulge the kid in you with this vegan recipe for easy, creamy, fruity strawberry banana popsicles! They are basically like a strawberry banana smoothie but in popsicle form.

    You’ll love how easy these are to make! You’ll just have to be patient while they freeze and then you’re in business.

    So, read on to learn how to make my family's favorite strawberry banana popsicles!

    Vegan Strawberry Banana Popsicle Ingredients

    Ingredients to make strawberry banana popsicles for the summer!
    • Fresh strawberries – Did you know that the strawberry we all eat today is actually a European hybrid of two other varieties (Chilean and North American)? These delicious, bright red berries pack a ton of vitamin C and manganese and they’re also a good source of folate (B9) and potassium. They’re also rich in antioxidants! 
    • Fresh bananas – The humble banana is a nutrition superstar! They also don’t break the bank, which helps offset the fact that strawberries can be a bit expensive. Well known for containing potassium, did you know that bananas also contain 12% daily value of vitamin C? They really do it all!
    • Vegan vanilla yogurt – Vegan yogurt contains the same benefits as dairy yogurt—like probiotics—but without any of the cruelty! Plus, they tend to be easier to digest since they are lactose-free. The yogurt in this recipe will help make your popsicles deliciously creamy! 
    • Plant-based milk – While you can simply choose your preferred plant milk, you may get a richer beverage if you opt for a creamier plant milk rather than one that’s more “thin,” i.e. more watery. You might try oatmilk or coconut milk, for example. While coconut milk is quite rich, it does contain many beneficial nutrients.
    • Maple syrup – Maple syrup is a delicious sweetener, as we all know from pancakes. That said, it’s a great vegan sweetener in general. While it might not necessarily be all that much healthier than regular sugar, it does at least contain some minerals and antioxidants, including high amounts of manganese and zinc.

    What Additions Can I Make to These Popsicles?

    A popsicle with a bite taken out of it leaned against a stack of popsicles.

    For extra fancy popsicles, try thinly slicing a few strawberries and putting them into the popsicle molds before pouring the blended mixture into the molds.

    And if you want an even more indulgent treat, once the popsicle molds are frozen dip them in melted chocolate mixed with a tiny bit of melted coconut oil! Then place them back in the freezer on a plate for ten minutes to set. 

    You can also add more maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter popsicle. The sweetness level will also depend on the ripeness of the bananas that you use.

    What is the Best Popsicle Mold?

    Two popsicles on a pink glass plate.

    I generally prefer silicone molds (like this one I own) because they tend to have more give when you want to remove the popsicles. Take care though when you fill them. I suggest placing them on a small baking tray that will fit into your freezer before you fill them so that they don’t spill everywhere.

    If you’re having trouble getting the popsicles out once they’re frozen, simply run the bottom of the mold in warm water until they loosen up. 

    And if you don’t have popsicles molds and still want to make these, no worries! You can just use paper cups instead.
