Peel the oranges and remove any seeds. Cut them into smaller pieces for easier blending.
Peel the bananas and slice them into chunks.
In a blender, combine the orange pieces, banana slices, plain yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, and orange juice.
Blend everything on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the blender as needed to ensure even blending.
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness with additional honey if desired.
Pour the smoothie mixture evenly into popsicle molds, leaving a small amount of space at the top to allow for expansion as the pops freeze.
Insert popsicle sticks into the molds and place the molds in the freezer.
Freeze for at least 4 hours or until the popsicles are completely frozen.
To remove the pops, run the molds under warm water for a few seconds to loosen them.
