Description

A chilled, luscious banana-date dessert layered with creamy coconut‑banana filling, sweet chopped dates, and a crumbly oat crust—no oven needed, perfect for hot days or light entertaining.


Ingredients

Crust:

1½ cups rolled oats (or oat flour)

½ cup chopped dates

¼ cup shredded coconut

3 Tbsp coconut oil or melted butter

Pinch of salt

Filling:

1½ cups mashed ripe banana (about 3 medium bananas)

1 cup Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for dairy‑free)

¼ cup honey or maple syrup

1 tsp vanilla extract

Optional: pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg

Topping:

Sliced bananas and chopped dates

Optional drizzle: melted dark chocolate or nut butter


Instructions

In a bowl, stir together rolled oats, chopped dates, coconut, coconut oil (or butter), and a pinch of salt until mixture holds together when pressed. Press evenly into bottom of an 8‑inch springform pan or square dish. Chill for at least 20 minutes.

In another bowl, mash ripe bananas until smooth. Stir in Greek yogurt, honey (or maple), vanilla, and optional spice.

Pour banana‑yogurt mixture over the chilled crust, smoothing the top evenly.

Layer sliced bananas and chopped dates on top of filling. Drizzle melted dark chocolate or nut butter if desired.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to fully set.

Slice into squares or wedges and serve chilled.
