Peanut Butter Banana Baby & Toddler Melts

These frozen finger food melts are delicious and nutritious. Made with only 3 ingredients: yogurt of choice, fresh peanut butter created in the NutraMilk and banana. These are especially great to relieve pain during teething months. Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS

For melts

  • 1/3 cup plain full-fat yogurt (dairy- free such as coconut or regular dairy yogurt)
  • 1/2 ripe banana, mashed
  • 1 tbsp. peanut butter made with the NutraMilk

For peanut butter

  • 2 cups (275g) peanuts (untoasted, unsalted)
  • pinch salt (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Making the peanut butter
    • Place peanuts in the NutraMilk container.
    • Press Butter cycle, set for 2-3 minutes.
    • Press Start.
    • Open the container lid.
    • If necessary, set for an additional 1-2 minutes for a creamier butter.

  • In a medium bowl, combine the yogurt, banana and peanut butter until combined.

  • Spoon onto a baking sheet or into a silicone mold. Either works great! Once filled, tap the silicone mold on the counter to get rid of any air pockets.

  • Place the baking sheet or silicone mold into the freezer for at least 5 hours or preferably overnight.
  • Take a shape out and serve to baby. These melt very fast (for safety reasons), so it's best to only take out 1 or 2 at a time.

Notes:

*You can sub peanut butter for any nut butter made with the NutraMilk you like.
