Banana Frozen Yogurt
makes 1 serving
The beauty of this frozen yogurt is that it tastes as good as ice cream but is healthier and requires virtually no cooking. If you drain the yogurt and chop and freeze the fruit ahead of time, it can be thrown together on a whim.
1 to 2 tablespoons drained plain yogurt
1 banana, sliced and frozen
1 splash white rum (or to taste)
1 teaspoon honey (or to taste)
1 dash ground cinnamon and/or nutmeg
prep: 15 minutes
total: 15 minutes, plus a few hours to drain yogurt and freeze fruit
sieve
cheesecloth
food processor or blender
1. Drain the yogurt: In a sieve lined with cheesecloth, drain plain yogurt for a few hours or overnight.
2. Prep the banana: Peel and slice the fruit; place in a freezer bag and freeze for a few hours or overnight.
3. Make the frozen yogurt: Combine drained yogurt, frozen banana and splash of white rum in a food processor or blender. Pulse until smooth. Taste for sweetness, adding honey if needed or desired and pulsing again to combine. At this point, you can also add in a dash of cinnamon and/or nutmeg to taste. Add a bit of water if the mixture seems too thick. Serve immediately.
