Ingredients
  

2 large ripe bananas, sliced

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1 cup Greek yogurt (vanilla-flavored works great)

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups granola (your choice of flavor)

1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional, for garnish)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peanut Butter Layer: In a medium bowl, mix the creamy peanut butter and Greek yogurt until smooth and well-combined.

    Whip the Cream: In a separate mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar together using an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add the vanilla extract and continue whipping until well-combined but not over-whipped.

      Fold the Whipped Cream: Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture, being careful not to deflate the cream. This will create a light and airy layer for your trifle.

        Layer the Trifle: In a large glass trifle dish or individual serving cups, begin layering your ingredients. Start with a layer of the peanut butter mixture, followed by a layer of sliced bananas, then a layer of granola. Repeat this process until you reach the top of the dish, finishing with a layer of the peanut butter mixture.

          Top it Off: If desired, sprinkle the top with chocolate chips and garnish with fresh mint leaves.

            Chill & Serve: Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to allow the flavors to meld and the layers to set before serving.
