# What You’ll Need:

→ Fruit

01 - 2 medium ripe bananas

→ Yogurt Base

02 - 3/4 cup (6 oz) Greek yogurt, plain or vanilla

→ Sweetener & Flavorings

03 - 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional)

# How-to Steps:

02 - Peel the bananas and cut into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
03 - In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with honey (or maple syrup) and vanilla extract, stirring until smooth.
04 - Dip each banana round into the yogurt mixture, turning to coat evenly on all sides. Use a fork or toothpick for easier handling.
05 - Place each yogurt-coated banana slice onto the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving a small gap between pieces.
06 - Sprinkle chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or mini chocolate chips over the coated banana slices while the yogurt is still soft.

08 - Transfer the frozen bites to an airtight container and keep stored in the freezer until ready to serve.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • These little gems taste like dessert but sneak in real fruit and protein without trying too hard.
  • They take almost no effort and vanish so fast you will want to double the batch immediately.
02 -
  • Thinner yogurts like regular yogurt will slide off so stick with Greek or strain your yogurt first.
  • Letting them sit at room temperature for two or three minutes before eating transforms the texture from icy to creamy.
03 -
  • Freeze the banana slices for ten minutes before dipping and the yogurt clings to them much better.
  • A toothpick gives you more control than a fork when coating and keeps your fingers clean.
