Method

  1. Peel the bananas and slice in half across the middle. Pop a wooden lolly stick into the cut ends of the banana slices and set aside. Line a baking tray or plate with baking paper (make sure it will fit in your freezer!).
  2. Add the yogurt to a tall container (such as a drinking glass) and use the lolly sticks to dip the bananas into the yogurt.
  3. Place the yogurt covered bananas onto the tray, then sprinkle with the dried cherries. Pop into the freezer for at least 5-6 hours or until solid.
  4. Leave the bananas to thaw for a few minutes before serving.
