Tropsicles

Coconut milk and banana give these ice pops a creamy consistency without dairy or soy. Be sure to puree the mixture until very smooth so resulting pops don’t contain crunchy buts that may be too icy for sensitive baby teeth.

2 cups fresh pineapple chunks
1 large banana, sliced
3/4 cup light coconut milk
1/4 to 1/2 cup agave nectar
Puree all ingredients in blender 1 to 2 minutes, or until mixture is smooth.
Ladle into ice pop molds, and ffreeze at least 4 hours. Run molds under warm water to unmold.
