Recipe Details
- Meal Type: Snack / Teething Treat
- Dietary: Healthy, Vegetarian, Gluten-Free
- Method: No-Bake / Freezing
- Prep Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 ripe Banana
- 2-3 tbsp Plain Greek or Whole Milk Yogurt
- 1 tbsp Smooth Nut Butter (Peanut, Almond, or Cashew)
- 1 tsp Chia Seeds
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prep the Base: Peel your banana and slice it into rounds, roughly 1/2 inch thick.
- The Smash: Arrange the slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use the bottom of a clean glass to gently “smash” each slice until it’s slightly flattened. This creates a little platform for the toppings!
- Layer the Goodness: Spoon a small dollop of yogurt onto the center of each flattened banana.
- The Drizzle: Lightly drizzle your choice of smooth nut butter over the yogurt.Pro-tip: If your nut butter is too thick, microwave it for 10 seconds to make it easier to drizzle.
- The Finishing Touch: Sprinkle a few chia seeds over the top of each bite for an extra nutritional boost.
- Flash Freeze: Slide the tray into the freezer for at least 2 hours, or until the bites are completely firm.
- Serve & Store: Once frozen, pop them off the parchment paper. Serve immediately or store them in a freezer-safe bag for a quick grab-and-go snack!
A Note on Safety: Always ensure your baby has been safely introduced to dairy and nuts individually before serving this recipe. For younger babies, ensure the frozen bites are small enough to be managed easily or let them sit at room temperature for 2 minutes to soften slightly before serving.
