Recipe Steps
You can start with frozen or fresh mango. If you are using frozen mango, then you need to defrost it overnight in the refrigerator.
Step One
Gather up your ingredients including mango, pineapple, and banana. You’ll also need a set of popsicle molds.
Step Two
The second step to making these Mango Pineapple Banana Popsicles is to blend your ingredients in a blender. Ideally, you’d use a high speed blender to make the mixture really smooth, but a regular blender will work just fine too.
You can also use a food processor to make your homemade popsicles.
If you’re using frozen mango that you have defrosted, there should be a little bit of liquid that you need to use too.
If you are using fresh mango, you’ll need to use a blender that has a tamper to help push the ingredients into the blade (or add a few tablespoons of liquid like orange juice, pineapple juice, water, or almond milk).
Step Three
Once your mixture is fully blended, then you just need to pour it into your molds.
Step Four
Freeze the Mango Pineapple Popsicles for at least 6 hours, or until they are completely frozen.
Step Five
When you’re ready to serve your popsicles, you can let them sit on the countertop for about 5-10 minutes to soften up a bit. Or, you can run them under hot water or warm water for a few seconds to help get them out of the molds.
Either way, I really hope you love these fresh, healthy and super fruity popsicles! They are one of my favorite desserts on a hot day.
Recipes Tips
- Want to make just plain Mango Popsicles? Leave out the banana and pineapple. Most frozen mango is sweet enough to make a super delicious popsicle. If you’re afraid your mango popsicles won’t be sweet enough, feel free to add 1-2 tablespoons of maple syrup when you blend it up. See my recipe for plain Mango Popsicles.
- If you want a creamy popsicle, you can add 1/2 cup of full-fat coconut milk to the blender.
- This recipe is extremely versatile and you can use the basic recipe to make different flavors. Feel free to make other substitutions with other types of frozen tropical fruits and berries. You can make just plain Pineapple Mango Popsicles, or use other seasonal fruits like berries. For fruit that is not naturally sweet (like acai or raspberries), add 1-4 tablespoons of maple syrup to the blender.
- Don’t have popsicles molds? You can also use an ice cube tray or paper cups with wooden popsicle sticks.
