Ingredients
  

2 large ripe bananas

1 cup plain Greek yogurt

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon cocoa powder (optional)

1/4 cup mini chocolate chips

1/4 cup crushed walnuts or almonds

Fresh strawberries, sliced (for topping)

Maraschino cherries (for garnish)

Whipped cream (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Bananas: Begin by peeling the ripe bananas and slicing them into 1-inch thick rounds. Arrange the banana slices in a single layer on a baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

    Make the Yogurt Mixture: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cocoa powder (if you choose to include it). Stir the mixture vigorously until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.

      Assemble the Disks: Using a small spoon or a spatula, generously dollop the yogurt mixture onto each banana slice. Aim to cover the banana rounds completely, allowing for a beautiful presentation; feel free to be artistic with the yogurt application!

        Add the Toppings: Evenly sprinkle the mini chocolate chips and crushed walnuts or almonds over the yogurt-covered banana slices. This will add both texture and flavor, enhancing the overall experience.

          Freeze the Disks: Carefully place the baking sheet in the freezer and allow the disks to freeze for about 2-3 hours, or until the yogurt mixture is completely solid. Once frozen, you can transfer the disks into an airtight container for longer storage, ensuring they stay fresh for future indulgence.

            Serve: When you're ready to enjoy these delightful treats, take the disks out of the freezer and let them soften at room temperature for a few minutes. Serve topped with slices of fresh strawberries for a burst of flavor, a dollop of whipped cream if desired, and finish with a classic maraschino cherry on top for the ultimate banana split experience!
