Recipe FAQs
No churn means no churning is needed. That means that you do not need an ice cream maker to whip up this frozen treat. This helps reduce the prep work, and no special appliances are needed. Simple and easy but with the same great creamy taste.
This frozen yogurt is healthier than traditional ice cream. You will find the Greek yogurt adds a good amount of protein to this dessert. Plus you are using honey as the sweetener compared to sugar.
Comparing frozen yogurt that is not churned compared to a store-bought frozen yogurt, you will find it is a lot harder. You need to allow 5-10 minutes for the yogurt to thaw once you remove it from the freezer. This will help soften up, allowing you to scoop it easier.
If you don’t want to use Greek yogurt you are more than welcome to reach for plain yogurt instead. I just prefer the Greek for the nutrients portion. But, reach for any brand you prefer the flavor of for this froyo banana recipe.
Bananas are going to become very mushy and gummy if they are not frozen when you toss them in the food processor. The key is a thick and creamy base, and for that, to work you need frozen bananas. Don’t skip that step, or you will run the risk of your froyo not turning out.
