Place half a cup of plain Greek yogurt into a small bowl.

Greek yogurt gives the recipe a creamy texture and provides protein, making the snack more satisfying than eating dates alone.

Step 3: Add the Dates

Add the chopped dates to the yogurt.

Mix gently until the pieces are evenly distributed.

The combination of creamy yogurt and naturally sweet dates makes a simple dessert-like snack without requiring refined sugar.

Step 4: Add Chia Seeds

Sprinkle one teaspoon of chia seeds over the mixture.

Chia seeds add texture and provide additional fiber and plant-based nutrients.

Step 5: Add Walnuts

Add a tablespoon of chopped walnuts.

The nuts provide healthy fats and a pleasant crunch that complements the soft dates.

Step 6: Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle approximately half a teaspoon of cinnamon over the top.

Stir everything together gently.

If you enjoy stronger cinnamon flavor, you can add a little more.

Step 7: Add Banana if Desired

For additional natural sweetness, add a few slices of banana.

This is completely optional.

If the dates are already very sweet, you may prefer to leave the banana out.

Step 8: Enjoy in the Evening

You can enjoy this snack in the evening when you want something sweet.

A small serving is usually enough because dates are naturally concentrated and sweet.

There is no need to eat a large quantity simply because a social-media post recommends doing so.
