Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 large ripe banana
- 150 g natural yoghurt (or yoghurt of your choice)
- Handful of dried banana chips (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the cups: Lay out approximately 12 cupcake cases or silicone muffin cups on a small baking sheet or tray that fits inside your freezer.
- Mash the banana: Peel the banana and place it on a plate. Mash it thoroughly with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth with minimal lumps.
- Combine banana and yoghurt: Transfer the mashed banana into a bowl and add the yoghurt. Whisk the mixture together until fully combined and creamy.
- Fill the cups: Spoon the banana and yoghurt mixture into each cupcake case, dividing evenly. Optionally, sprinkle dried banana chips on top, either whole or broken pieces, for added texture and flavor.
- Freeze: Place the baking tray with the filled cups into the freezer. Leave to freeze for about 2 hours or until set solid.
- Serve or store: Once frozen, remove the bites from the cupcake cases and serve immediately, or store them in an airtight container or freezer bag to enjoy later.
Notes
- You can use any type of yoghurt you prefer, such as Greek yoghurt or flavored varieties, but natural yoghurt works best for balanced flavor.
- Dried banana chips add a nice crunch but are optional; you can also experiment with other toppings like chopped nuts or berries.
- If you don’t have silicone muffin cups, regular cupcake liners work as well.
- For easier removal after freezing, consider using silicone molds instead of paper cases.
- These bites are best consumed within a week for optimal freshness.
