Note

For best texture, use ripe bananas with brown spots, as they are sweeter and mash more easily.

To unmold frozen pops, run the bottom of the mold under warm water for a few seconds before pulling the stick out.

Store unused mixture in the refrigerator for up to 2 days before freezing, or freeze the finished pops for up to 1 month.
