Ingredients
- 16 ounces plain Greek yogurt
- ⅓ cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 medium size ripe bananas, mashed
- 2 tablespoons honey
Instructions
- Add the Greek yogurt, creamy peanut butter, mashed bananas and honey to a blender.
- Tightly place the lid on the blender and puree on low for 30 seconds. Increase the blender speed to high and continue to puree for 1 ½ -2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and uniform in color and no brown streaks from the peanut butter remain.
- Use a spoon, disposable piping bag, or gallon-size Ziplock bag with a corner snipped off to fill the molds.
- Fill only the cavity of the mold, but if you happen to overfill, just use a butter knife to gently scrape the excess filling off the top of the mold.
- Place the uncovered and filled molds in the freezer for 4 hours, or until the treats are frozen solid. When you are ready to serve the treats, simply push the bottom of the molds to dislodge the treats.
Notes
- Before you begin, prepare your work area. Set a baking tray beneath your molds to catch any spills, making your cleanup a breeze! This will also make it easy to move your molds to the freezer. Set aside for now.
- When adding ingredients to the blender, start with the softer ones like bananas and yogurt at the bottom. This can help the blender work more efficiently and prevent the mixture from getting stuck.
- If you see any streaks, scrape down the sides of the blender and blend for an additional 30 seconds.
- For the cleanest edges, gently tap the tray on the counter to settle the mixture and remove any air pockets.
- Don’t be tempted to remove the treats too early. They should be completely solid to maintain their shape when removed from the molds.
