1. Banana Ice
Lollies
Ingredients
2 or 3 bananas
lolly sticks (you can
substitute cocktail sticks for older children)
optional coverings:
melted chocolate or maple
syrup
dried coconut
chopped nuts
sesame seeds
vermicelli (hundreds and
thousands)
Cut the bananas into bite
size chunks and push the lolly sticks into them.
Place in the freezer on a covered freezer proof
dish for a couple of hours or until frozen. They
are delicious just like that but if you prefer a
bit of decadence (still relatively frugal when
you're making your own!): dip each lolly in
chocolate or syrup (be quick - it sets quite
fast!) and then into dry ingredients of your
choice (chopped nuts are our favourite). Perfect
for all those wonderful long summer days that are
coming (positive thinking).
 
2. Blended lollies are great - you can use pure juice but it will come out very hard and ice like. Adding some banana to the blender helps cream it up a bit - pictured are a blend of raspberries, banana and a little apple juice. Experiment with what fruits you have at hand :) Lolly moulds here
