- To remove, dip the popsicle mold into warm water for 3 to 5 seconds before pushing the popsicles up from the bottom of the silicone mold.
Tips Tricks and FAQs
- This recipe calls for vanilla pudding, but you can easily add even more banana flavor to these by using banana pudding.
- You can use fresh or frozen bananas with this recipe. I love to use ones that are super ripe because it adds tons of flavor in every bite.
- You can use a favorite homemade instant pudding recipe if you prefer.
- Love chocolate? Use chocolate pudding to make Chocolate banana pudding popsicles.
- Be sure that your sticks are straight when you make these popsicles.
- I know you might want to try these right away, but you need to let them sit for at least 6 hours. Before completely removing them from the mold to store, wait until they have frozen overnight.
Storage
You will want to store your leftover popsicles in the freezer! You can keep them in the mold, but I love to make sure I never run out of popsicles. So once these are completely frozen, I will remove them from the mold and store in a freezer safe bag. I then have my mold to create another batch of delicious popsicles.
