Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas, sliced into ½-inch rounds

1 cup plain Greek yogurt (or your favorite flavored yogurt)

1/2 cup shredded unsweetened coconut

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust based on sweetness preference)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of sea salt

Optional toppings: mini chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or fresh berries for garnishing

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Use a whisk to mix thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well-blended.

    Coat the Banana Slices: Take each banana slice and dip it into the yogurt mixture. Ensure that both sides are fully coated. If needed, use a spoon to help cover the slices evenly, creating a nice layer of yogurt.

      Coconut Coating: After the banana slices are coated in yogurt, roll each slice in the shredded coconut. Press gently on the coconut to ensure it adheres well and forms a nice outer layer.

        Freezing: Arrange the coconut-coated banana wheels on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Make sure to space them out evenly to prevent them from sticking together during freezing.

          Chill in the Freezer: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let the banana wheels freeze for at least 2 hours, or until they are firm to the touch.

            Serve and Enjoy: Once the banana wheels have frozen completely, take them out from the freezer. If desired, sprinkle your choice of optional toppings—such as mini chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or fresh berries—over the banana wheels right before serving.

              Storing: Should you have any leftovers, store the banana yogurt wheels in an airtight container in the freezer, where they will remain fresh for up to a week.
