Ingredients

serves 8

　　1 cup strawberry preserves

　　4 bananas, peeled and cut in half widthwise

　　8 Popsicle sticks

　　3/4 cup granola, any kind your kids like

　　3/4 cup walnuts, or any kind of nuts you like

　　

Step 1

Heat the preserves in a high-sided bowl in the microwave until they thin out. Pierce each banana half through the center of the cut side with a Popsicle stick. Dip the bananas into the strawberry preserves until they’re completely coated.

　　

Step 2

Place the granola and nuts on separate plates. After dipping a banana into the preserves, coat it in the nuts or granola, whichever you prefer. Make the coating stick to the banana by pressing lightly on the coating with your hands. Place the coated bananas on a small baking sheet lined with wax paper and pop them into the freezer until ready to eat.
