This Healthy Banana Frozen Yogurt Recipe Is Almost Too Easy

College has undoubtedly grown my dependance on frozen yogurt. The perfect balance between cold, sweet, and refreshing, a dose of fro-yo makes any day infinitely better.

But how sad it is when social norms and healthy habits prevent me from eating said fro-yo at any and all meal times?

I feel as though fro-yo is not only a want, but a need. 

After a friend recommended that I explore some healthy fro-yo options, I quickly realized that frozen yogurt does not, in fact, need to be dairy-based. If you have access to a freezer and a blender, your fro-yo life is about to improve significantly.

Is it possible to make froyo easily yourself and in a healthy way? Yes… yes it is. Indulge your frozen yogurt instincts with this super easy, 2-ingredient treat. It’s literally just bananas and whatever toppings you want. 

Healthy Banana Fro-yo

Difficulty:BeginnerPrep time:2 hours Cook time: 5 minutesTotal time:2 hours 5 minutesServings:1 servings

Ingredients

• 1 banana
• 1-3 tablespoons water milk or nut milk
• 3-6 ice cubes
• Toppings and mix ins

Instructions

1. 
   

   Grab a banana and freeze it. I find it easier to peel and cut the banana before freezing to avoid the laborious task of slicing an unpeeled frozen banana before blending.

2. 
   

   Put that frozen banana in your blender.

3. Add a little water or milk. If you’re feeling more of an icy or sorbet-like vibe, go ahead and add a few ice cubes.

4. 
   

   Add the ingredients you want blended into the fro-yo.

5. 
   

   Blend until creamy and fro-yo-like. Garnish with toppings.
