Last night after dinner I was craving something sweet. Conor suggested we go get Fro-yo, but I just didn’t feel like driving 30 minutes to have to sit outside and eat my fro-yo on a bench. I wasn’t having the best night and I just wanted something delicious that I could eat from the comfort of my own couch.
I started brainstorming and eventually came up with a quick and healthy dessert made up of things that I had at home. It was delicious and we felt much better than we would have after a heaping bowl of frozen yogurt. 🙂
PB Roasted Bananas
Ingredients: Makes Two Servings
- 2 bananas
- 1 cup vanilla greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons of smooth peanut butter
- cinnamon
- honey
- optional: handful of chocolate chips
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Slice the bananas down the middle, lengthwise, and place on a cookie sheet. Bake for approximately 10 minutes or until golden brown and soft.
- While the bananas are baking, whip together the yogurt and peanut butter until completely combined. Place in refrigerator to thicken.
- Coat the bananas lightly with honey and sprinkle with cinnamon.
- Remove yogurt/PB mixture from the refrigerator and scoop half onto each banana.
We topped ours with a handful of chocolate chips, but you could use pretty much any topping. I think walnuts would have been a delicious addition. 🙂
Enjoy!
