This healthy banana and cinnamon ice cream is a delicious after-dinner treat. The reason it is healthier than traditional ice cream, is because it uses Greek yoghurt instead of cream or buttermilk. Not only is this extremely low in saturated fats, it’s also a decent source of protein and calcium. Although bananas are relatively high in natural sugars, they pack plenty of nutritional goodness and they are also a particularly good source of vitamin C and potassium.
