Banana Tahini Pops

Banana Tahini Pops

Course Dessert

Ingredients
  

  • 6 ripe bananas peele, sliced, and frozen
  • 1/2 cup tahini
  • 3 Tablespoons maple syrup or to taste

Instructions
 

  • Line an 8-by-4-inch loaf pan with plastic wrap (you can use a 9-by-5 pan if that's what you've got), leaving an overhang on all sides.
  • Place the bananas in your food processor and process till crumbly. Scrape down the sides and continue processing the bananas will become smooth, and then thick and creamy with a consistency similar to soft-serve ice cream.
  • Meanwhile whisk the tahini and maple syrup till smooth to taste and adjust sweetener if needed.
  • Spread half the ice cream into your loaf pan and smooth with the back of a spoon. Drizzle half the tahini mixture over. Repeat with remaining ice cream and tahini. Use a thin sharp knife to swirl the mixture together; rap the pan on the counter to level.
  • Cover the pan with plastic wrap, making sure it makes contact with the surface of the ice cream. Use a small knife to make two rows of slits and insert your popsicle sticks. Freeze overnight.
  • Use the plastic wrap to transfer the ice cream to a cutting board – carefully remove the top layer of plastic and peel back the sides. Use a large sharp knife to cut the loaf down the middle and then crosswise into individual “pops”. Serve immediately or keep frozen.
