Ladies (and gentlemen), let me introduce you to my absolute favorite midnight craving crusher – the Banana-Nutella Greek Yogurt Parfait Bowl! Trust me, this isn’t your basic late-night snack; it’s what I call “healthy-ish indulgence” that won’t have you feeling guilty when you crawl into bed.
You know those nights when you’re binge-watching your favorite show and suddenly your stomach starts having a whole conversation with you? Yeah, been there! This recipe is my go-to solution that’s both satisfying and nutritious.
Here’s what you’ll need (I know you’re already excited!):
– 1 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat, because we’re not playing around here)
– 1 ripe banana (the spottier, the better!)
– 2 tablespoons Nutella (or more… I won’t judge 😉)
– 1 handful of crushed almonds
– 1 tablespoon honey
– A sprinkle of cinnamon
– Optional: dark chocolate chips (because why not?)
Now, let me walk you through this heavenly creation:
1. Grab your prettiest bowl (presentation matters, even at midnight!)
2. Layer half the Greek yogurt at the bottom
3. Slice half the banana and arrange it around the bowl
4. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of Nutella in a zigzag pattern (make it Instagram-worthy!)
5. Add the remaining yogurt
6. Top with remaining banana slices
7. Drizzle more Nutella (because duh!)
8. Sprinkle crushed almonds
9. Add a touch of honey
10. Finish with a dash of cinnamon and chocolate chips if you’re feeling extra fancy
Y’all, this parfait is packed with protein from the Greek yogurt, potassium from the bananas, and healthy fats from the almonds. Plus, that Nutella just makes everything better, am I right?

The best part? This takes less than 5 minutes to make, which means more time for that show you’re binging. And let’s be honest, we’ve all had those nights where we need something more exciting than a boring old cheese stick!
Pro tip: Keep your bananas in the freezer and thaw one when needed – they get super sweet and creamy! And if you’re feeling particularly adventurous, try warming the Nutella slightly for easier drizzling (just 10 seconds in the microwave does the trick).
