Description
A healthy and delicious twist on the classic banana split, featuring ripe bananas topped with creamy Greek yogurt, crunchy granola, fresh berries, and a drizzle of honey. This no-cook breakfast is ready in just 5 minutes and packed with protein, fiber, and antioxidants.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 bananas (ripe but firm)
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (vanilla or plain)
- 1/2 cup granola
- 1/2 cup fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or a mix)
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
- Chopped nuts (walnuts, almonds, pecans) – optional
- Shredded coconut – optional
- Mini chocolate chips – optional
- Chia seeds – optional
Instructions
- Gather all your ingredients and tools. Wash and dry the fresh berries, peel your bananas, and get your yogurt, granola, and optional toppings ready for assembly.
- Use a sharp knife to slice each banana lengthwise, just like a classic banana split. Lay the two halves in your serving bowl, slightly overlapping if needed to create a base.
- Spoon about half a cup of Greek yogurt onto the center of the bananas, spreading it gently to cover the fruit and create a luscious layer.
- Layer the crunchy granola over the yogurt, making sure you get generous coverage. This adds crunch and depth to your breakfast.
- Top with fresh berries, scattering them evenly for a burst of color and freshness. Now is the time for optional toppings: nuts, coconut, chocolate chips, or chia seeds.
- If you like, finish with a light drizzle of honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness and shine.
- Grab a spoon and dig in while everything is fresh, creamy, and crunchy!
Notes
- Choose bananas that are just ripe—overly ripe bananas can become mushy, while underripe ones lack sweetness
- Toast your granola or nuts briefly for enhanced aroma and flavor
- Add granola at the last minute, right before eating, to keep it extra crunchy
- For ultra-creamy yogurt, whip it quickly with a spoon before layering
- Can be made vegan by using non-dairy yogurt and maple syrup instead of honey
- Best assembled right before serving to maintain texture and freshness
- Store ingredients separately if prepping ahead
