Fruity Frozen Yogurt

Its official. My two year old son has inherited my sweet tooth..

Which means I now have three sweet tooth’s (teeth?) to manage in this household.

We all love sugar! That’s it, I said it, and I’m not ashamed.

But I am trying to get better about choosing more nutritious options to fulfill those cravings, especially as my little buddy asks for a “special treat” EVERY. NIGHT. before bed.

Fruity Frozen Yogurt Bites

Frozen yogurt seems like a perfect way to fulfill a sweets craving, right?

Except, I feel like every time I have made frozen yogurt at home, I have hated the texture once it has been frozen. It gets kind of chunky or gritty, not smooth and creamy like my beloved ice cream.

So I did some experimenting and also remembered that frozen bananas make a creamy, smooth texture.

Together I added the bananas with plain Greek yogurt and a splash of coconut, and voila, the perfect consistency!

I always have homemade coconut milk yogurt in my fridge. I use it for everything from breakfast bowls to a substitute for sour cream.

I added strawberries because that is what I had in my refrigerator, but feel free to swap any fresh fruit for a little variety in this recipe.

All the Toppings

Once you have the banana-yogurt base made for these delicious Fruity Frozen Yogurt Bites, all you need to do is decide what delicious toppings you want to add to the mix.

I used things that I already had in my cupboard, which I have learned is quite different than what other people may have in their cupboard 🙂

No Goji berries? Try swapping dried cranberries instead.

No raw cacao? (Which I use to trick my two year old into thinking they are chocolate chips 😉 ) Just use real chocolate chips!

Anything that provides nutrients, like vitamins or minerals, fiber or antioxidants, are a perfect choice here. Nuts and seeds would work well too!
