Bananas Foster Popsicles, a fun recipe twist on bananas foster in popsicle form with bananas, greek yogurt, rum extract, and cinnamon.

These Bananas Foster Popsicles are full of your favorite Bananas Foster flavors, and easy to make thanks to my KitchenAid blender!  Only take minutes to prepare but unfortunately you do have to wait a few hours for the popsicles to freeze.  If you’re not familiar with Bananas Foster it’s a popular ice cream dessert from New Orleans and so delicious!  This version does not contain alcohol, but I did use some rum extract for a similar flavor.

First, add your bananas, brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon to a small bowl and microwave in 30 second intervals until the bananas are soft.  Cooking the bananas seemed to intensify the flavors.  You could also do this in a pan on the stovetop if you prefer.

The bananas will be really soft and break up as you stir.  Small chunks are ok.

Let the bananas cool then add it to the blender along with some Greek yogurt, milk, vanilla, and McCormick rum extract.  My KitchenAid blender whipped everything up in seconds!!!  Love the blue color of this blender, don’t you?

Pour into your favorite popsicle mold and place them in the freezer for at least a few hours or until they are solid and frozen through.

Pop them out of the popsicle mold when you’re ready to serve.  Delicious and easy!

Hope you enjoy!
