Banana Coconut Pops are so simple to make as they only use three ingredients that most people have kicking around in their pantry. Your kids will have fun making them, as well. The hardest part is waiting for them to freeze. They make a great dessert and a super summer treat because they are so refreshing. Give them a try and let us know what you think.
We just have a couple of pointers to making these tasty little treats. First, you can use just about any yogurt you like. In this recipe, we use plain 2 percent yogurt. Greek or flavored yogurt could be used as well. You can use heavy skewers or lollipop sticks. Just make sure they are well covered with the yogurt and coconut flakes to ensure maximum flavor. This recipe makes about 8 pops, but you can double or triple the recipe if you require more. They will freeze in 2 to 3 hours, but I always like to leave my banana coconut pops in overnight.
