Banana casserole with yogurt is a delicate and aromatic dish that combines the freshness of fruits and the softness of a cottage cheese-yogurt mixture. This recipe originates from European cuisine, where simple and healthy desserts are valued. The casserole turns out airy, with subtle notes of vanilla and cinnamon that give it a refined taste. Baked bananas caramelize, making the dish sweet without excess sugar. It can be served for breakfast or as a light dessert, complemented with sour cream or natural yogurt. Due to its simplicity in preparation and healthy ingredients, it is perfect for those who watch their diet but do not want to give up delicious treats.
