Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and halved

1 cup Greek yogurt (choose either vanilla or plain)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup crushed graham crackers (for coating)

1/4 cup chopped nuts (such as almonds or walnuts, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Bananas: Begin by peeling the ripe bananas. Slice each banana into rounds approximately 1-inch thick. Arrange the slices on a plate lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

    Create the Yogurt Mixture: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup (if desired), and add the vanilla extract. Whisk the ingredients together until they are smooth and fully incorporated.

      Coat the Banana Slices: Take each banana slice and dip it into the yogurt mixture, ensuring the entire surface is well-coated. Using a fork, gently shake off any excess yogurt back into the bowl.

        Top with Strawberries: Place a halved strawberry on top of each yogurt-coated banana slice. Gently press the strawberry down to ensure it sticks to the yogurt.

          Roll in Coatings (Optional): In a separate shallow dish, combine the crushed graham crackers and chopped nuts. Take the yogurt-coated banana-strawberry bites and roll them in this mixture, providing an extra layer of crunch and flavor.

            Freeze for Perfection: Carefully position the coated banana-strawberry bites back onto the parchment-lined plate. Transfer the plate to the freezer and allow the bites to freeze for at least 2 hours or until they are completely solid.

              Serve and Enjoy: Once the bites are frozen, take them out of the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for about 1-2 minutes to soften slightly, making them easier to eat. Delight in these refreshing, sweet treats!
