Ingredients
  

4 ripe bananas, sliced

1 cup smooth peanut butter

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

2 cups granola (your choice, for crunch)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)

Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans, for garnish)

Instructions
 

In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and honey (or maple syrup) until smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract for added flavor.

    In a separate bowl, mix the peanut butter with a little warm water (1 tablespoon at a time) to loosen it up, making it easier to layer.

      In a large trifle dish or individual serving glasses, begin layering: start with a spoonful of the yogurt mixture as the base.

        Add a layer of sliced bananas on top of the yogurt, followed by a layer of peanut butter.

          Next, sprinkle a layer of granola over the peanut butter. If desired, add a layer of mini chocolate chips for an extra treat.

            Repeat the layers (yogurt, bananas, peanut butter, granola, chocolate chips) until all ingredients are used, ensuring the last layer is yogurt topped with granola.

              Garnish the top with chopped nuts and a few banana slices. Optional: drizzle extra honey or melted peanut butter on top for a touch of sweetness.

                Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
