# What You'll Need:

→ Fruit

01 - 2 medium ripe bananas

→ Yogurt

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

03 - In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with honey (or maple syrup) and vanilla extract, stirring until smooth.
04 - Dip each banana slice into the yogurt mixture, turning to coat evenly on all sides. Use a fork or toothpick for easier handling.

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

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • They taste like mini frozen cheesecakes but come together with zero cooking and barely any mess.
  • The combination of creamy tangy yogurt and sweet frozen banana is genuinely addictive and happens to be wholesome enough for breakfast.
02 -
  • Let the bites sit at room temperature for two or three minutes before eating because straight from the freezer they are rock hard and the flavors wake up beautifully with a brief thaw.
  • Dairy free yogurt alternatives work just as well but choose a thick one since runny varieties slide right off the banana slices.
03 -
  • Pat the banana slices dry with a paper towel before dipping because excess moisture makes the yogurt slide right off.
  • Work in small batches keeping most banana slices covered so they do not oxidize and turn brown while you dip.
