Ingredients
Yogurt – I recommend using whole milk Greek yogurt (4% or 5%) especially for young kids. They need all the fat they can get to support their rapid brain development. You can also use plain yogurt. The only difference is the thickness. Feel free to swap with any dairy-free alternative, if needed. Banana – use ripe banana with plenty of brown spots to naturally sweetened the yogurt without the need for additional added sugar. Stir-ins
