Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

1/4 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup granola (for topping)

Sliced almonds or walnuts (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Bananas: Peel the ripe bananas and slice them into small rounds (about 1/2 inch thick). Set aside.

    Mix the Yogurt Base: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, caramel sauce (reserve a little for drizzling later), honey or maple syrup (if using), sea salt, and vanilla extract. Stir until everything is well blended and smooth.

      Assemble the Cups:

        - Take silicone cupcake molds or small plastic cups and spoon a layer of the caramel yogurt mixture into the bottom, filling them about 1/3 of the way.

          - Add a few banana slices on top of the yogurt layer.

            - Spoon another layer of the yogurt mixture over the bananas until the cups are almost full (leave a little space for toppings).

              Freeze the Cups: Carefully place the cups in the freezer. Freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely solid.

                Serve: Once frozen, remove the cups from the freezer. Let them sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to soften slightly, which makes them easier to remove from the molds.

                  - If using silicone molds, gently push from the bottom to release each yogurt cup. If using plastic cups, you may need to run warm water around the outside to loosen them.

                    Add Toppings: Drizzle the remaining caramel sauce over the top of each yogurt cup. Sprinkle granola and sliced almonds or walnuts on top for added crunch.

                      Enjoy: Serve immediately as a refreshing snack or dessert that’s both healthy and satisfying!
