Here’s a recipe for a Delicious and Healthy Milk and Fruits Dessert that’s easy to make, refreshing, and perfect for any time of the year:
Milk and Fruits Dessert Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup fresh fruit (e.g., banana, apple, grapes, berries, papaya, mango, or any of your favorites)
- 1 cup milk (you can use dairy milk or a plant-based milk like almond, coconut, or oat milk)
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- 1-2 tablespoons yogurt (optional for creaminess)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds or flaxseeds (optional for added nutrition)
- A pinch of cinnamon or cardamom (optional for extra flavor)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Fruits:
- Wash and peel any fruits that need peeling (e.g., bananas, mangoes).
- Cut the fruits into bite-sized pieces. You can use a mix of fruits for variety or choose just one kind. Some great fruit combinations include banana and berries, or tropical fruits like mango, pineapple, and papaya.
- Make the Milk Base:
- Pour the milk into a blender or mixing bowl.
- Add the sweetener (honey or maple syrup) and vanilla extract if you like. Blend or stir the mixture until it’s well combined. If you’re adding yogurt, add it at this point for extra creaminess.
- Blend or Stir Together:
- Option 1: If you’re using a blender, place the prepared fruits and the milk mixture into the blender and pulse gently. You can blend it until smooth if you prefer a more liquid dessert, or leave it slightly chunky for a more salad-like texture.
- Option 2: If you prefer to keep things simple, just combine the cut fruits and milk mixture in a bowl. You can gently stir them together for a more layered effect.
- Optional: Add Extra Nutrition
- If desired, sprinkle some chia seeds or flaxseeds for added fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
- You can also add a pinch of cinnamon or cardamom for extra flavor if you like.
- Serve and Garnish:
- Pour the dessert into bowls or glasses. You can serve it as is or garnish with additional fruits, a drizzle of honey, or a sprinkle of granola for some crunch.
- Chill (Optional):
- You can refrigerate the dessert for about 15-20 minutes if you’d like it to be a bit colder, especially on hot days.
- Enjoy!
- Enjoy your refreshing and healthy milk and fruits dessert!
Tips:
- Fruit Choices: Choose fruits that are in season for the best flavor and nutritional value.
- Sweetener: If you prefer a healthier dessert, you can skip the sweetener altogether or use a natural option like stevia.
- Texture: If you like a thicker texture, you can use Greek yogurt or add less milk.
This dessert is a great way to enjoy the goodness of fruits with the richness of milk, making it a nutritious and satisfying treat.
