Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup or honey (or other natural sweetener of your choice)*
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 1/3 cup small pretzels, crushed a bit in your hand
• 2 tablespoons peanut butter

Preparation

Step 1

Mix together the banana, yogurt, maple syrup and vanilla; transfer to a freezer safe bowl, place plastic wrap directly on the top, and freeze.

Remove from the freezer; dip the bottom of the bowl in hot water so the frozen yogurt can slide right out.  Turn the frozen yogurt out onto a cutting board and cut it into big chunks; transfer it to a food processor and pulse a few times to break it up, then process until smooth and creamy.

Transfer the frozen yogurt to a bowl and fold in the chocolate chips, pretzels, and peanut butter.  Eat it as is, or freeze until it stiffens up just a bit to the point of being scoop-able, about 20 minutes (depending on how cold your freezer is).

*Two tablespoons gives a subtle sweetness, just the way I like it; adjust the amount to suit your preference.
