Ingredients
  

Greek yogurt
  • 2 cup plain Greek yogurt Use plain Greek yogurt for the tangy base.
Peanut butter swirl
  • 0.5 cup creamy peanut butter Stir well so it blends smoothly.
Sweetener & flavor
  • 3 tbsp honey or maple syrup Choose honey for classic flavor or maple syrup for a softer sweetness.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract Adds warmth and rounds out the peanut flavor.
  • 0.25 tsp salt Helps the sweetness pop and balances tanginess.
Toppings
  • 1 banana slices For serving.
  • honey For a drizzle on top (use honey as stated in the topping).

Equipment

  • 1 ice cream maker

Method
 

Blend the frozen yogurt base
  1. Whisk plain Greek yogurt, creamy peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt together until completely smooth, with no peanut butter streaks remaining.
  2. Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness by adding a little more honey or maple syrup if needed, then whisk again to fully combine.
Freeze or churn
  1. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container, then freeze for 4 hours while stirring every hour for the first 2 hours to prevent large ice crystals.
  2. Alternatively, churn the mixture in an ice cream maker for a smoother result instead of freeze-stirring.
Serve
  1. Let the frozen yogurt sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before scooping so it softens slightly for clean scoops.
  2. Top with banana slices and a drizzle of honey, then serve immediately.

Notes

Pro tip: Warm peanut butter slightly (about 10–15 seconds in the microwave) so it blends instantly with the yogurt. Storage: keep covered in the freezer up to 2 weeks; for best texture, soften at room temperature 5–10 minutes before serving. Freezing is the intended method—no separate freezing needed beyond the recipe. Dietary swap: use a dairy-free Greek-style yogurt (look for plain, high-protein) for a lactose-free version while keeping the same method.
