    Spinach and Banana Yogurt Melts | Nina Kneads to Bake

    My daughter is 17 months old and I have been giving her these yogurt bites for a very long time now. They were perfect for when she was learning to eat solids, and are now great for her to munch on while she struggles with teething.

    This recipe has only 3 ingredients - baby spinach, banana and Greek yogurt. I love that these are so healthy. The spinach is chock full of vitamins and it also helps turn these yogurt bites a pretty green colour. The banana covers the spinach taste and provides a sweetness. I use plain Greek Yogurt for these as it is thicker than regular plain yogurt and will help the yogurt melts retain their shape.

    I blitz this mixture up quickly in a food processor and then pipe out dots onto parchment paper. You will then freeze the yogurt melts while on the baking tray. Once they are frozen, you can easily transfer them to a freezer bag.
