Print Recipe

Creamy yogurt swirled with peanut butter, dotted with banana slices, and frozen into perfect little snackable pieces. This quick and easy frozen treat requires only five ingredients and about five minutes of active prep time.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
  • 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 medium ripe bananas
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, extending slightly up the sides.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, peanut butter, and honey or maple syrup. Stir until smooth and fully combined, leaving a few tiny swirls of peanut butter if desired.
  3. Pour the yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread into an even layer, about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick, forming a rough 9×13-inch rectangle.
  4. Slice bananas into thin rounds (about 1/4-inch thick) and arrange evenly over the yogurt mixture, gently pressing each slice down so it is partially submerged.
  5. Sprinkle dark chocolate chips evenly over the top. Optionally, drizzle with extra warmed peanut butter.
  6. Place the baking sheet in the freezer, ensuring it is level, and freeze for at least 3-4 hours or until completely solid (overnight is best).
  7. Once frozen solid, lift the parchment paper out of the baking sheet. Place the frozen bark on a cutting board and break or cut into irregular pieces.
  8. Transfer pieces to an airtight container or zip-top bag, layering parchment paper between them to prevent sticking. Store in the freezer.

Notes

For best texture, use full-fat Greek yogurt. Avoid nonfat yogurt as it becomes icy. Let yogurt sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before mixing to prevent peanut butter clumping. Freeze flat to ensure even thickness. Press banana slices gently into the yogurt so they stick. For a vegan version, use coconut yogurt and maple syrup. For nut-free, substitute sunflower seed butter or tahini.
