Ingredients

  • 1/2 ripe banana

    Ensure it is soft and ripe for easy mashing.

  • 2-3 tbsp plain whole-milk yogurt (regular or Greek)

    Avoid flavored or 'low-fat' versions. Must be pasteurized.

Instructions

  1. Select a very ripe banana (one with small brown spots is best for digestion).

  2. Peel the banana and mash it thoroughly with a fork in a small bowl until it is a smooth, liquid-like consistency.

  3. Add the plain, full-fat yogurt to the mashed banana.

  4. Stir vigorously until the yogurt and banana are completely incorporated and no large lumps remain.

  5. If this is the first time introducing dairy, start with just a small spoonful to monitor for any allergic reactions.

  6. Serve immediately at room temperature or slightly chilled.

Storage

Best served immediately. Banana will oxidize (turn brown) if stored, though it remains safe to eat for up to 12 hours in the fridge.
