Frozen Banana Yogurt Bites (Printable)

Yogurt-coated banana coins frozen into bite-sized, customizable healthy snacks.

# What You'll Need:

01 - 2 ripe bananas

02 - 1 cup (8 oz) Greek yogurt, plain or flavored

03 - 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)

04 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

05 - 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips

06 - 1/4 cup chopped nuts (almonds or walnuts)

07 - 1/4 cup shredded coconut

01 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

02 - Peel the bananas and cut them into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Discard the peels.

03 - In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and well blended.

04 - Using a fork or toothpick, dip each banana round into the yogurt mixture, turning to coat all sides evenly. Allow excess yogurt to drip off.

05 - Place each coated banana slice onto the parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving a small gap between pieces to prevent sticking.

06 - Sprinkle your choice of mini chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or shredded coconut over the coated banana slices while the yogurt is still wet.

07 - Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 2 hours, or until the yogurt coating is completely firm to the touch.

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

01 -

These little bites are the answer to every late night sweet craving that tries to lure you toward the cookie jar.
They take almost no effort, zero baking, and you probably have everything you need sitting in your kitchen right now.

02 -

If your bananas are too firm the yogurt will slide right off instead of gripping the surface, so patience with ripeness pays off enormously.
Do not skip the parchment paper because frozen yogurt bonds to bare metal like glue and you will end up scraping and cursing.

03 -

Use a toothpick for dipping instead of a fork because it gives you far more control and leaves fewer ugly marks on the finished bites.
Freeze the banana slices naked for ten minutes before dipping them, which prevents them from breaking apart in the yogurt mixture.
