Banana (Mai‘a)

Banana parfait

Get ready for layers of yum! This banana parfait mixes creamy yogurt, crunchy granola, and sweet local bananas for a tasty treat that keiki will love to build and eat. Perfect for snack time or a quick dessert, it’s a fun (and ono!) way to enjoy local flavors!

INGREDIENTS

1 apple banana
1/2 cup of plain yogurt
1/4 cup granola
1 teaspoon honey

INSTRUCTIONS

Have keiki peel the banana.
With a plastic or butter knife, demonstrate and guide them to cut the banana into slices.
In a clear cup or container, have keiki layer half of each of the ingredients: first yogurt, then granola, then banana slices.
Repeat to form a second layer, then drizzle honey on top. Enjoy!

TIPS:

Try to find local bananas (often smaller and sweeter than imported bananas), granola, and honey. Explain to keiki that these foods came from farms and businesses in Hawai‘i.
For an extra special treat, top with rainbow sprinkles.
