From Clean Eating Magazine. I made them over the weekend and they are awesome!! Nice treat when it's 90 degress outside!!
Coco Loco Banana Pops
1 1/2 cups ripe bananas, mashed
1 1/2 cups 100% natural coconut water
2 tablespoons agave nectar *I didn't add this and still was sweet enough.
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut, toasted *I couldn't find unsweetened. but sugar on regular is pretty low. So no big deal for off-season. Still better than eating Ben & Jerry's.:)
In a food processor or blender, puree bananas and coconut water until smooth. Add agave and vanilla, then blend until combined. Using a spatula, scrape mixture into a mixing bowl. Stir in coconut until combined.
Pour mixture into molds, leaving about 1/4" space at top to allow for expansion during freezing. Insert sticks into popsicles and put in freezer until firm, 4-6 hours.
Makes 12 - 3oz popsicles
