Comments

We changed the Peach Sundae recipe to reduce brown sugar from 3 Tablespoons to 1 Tablespoon. We found that testers liked it very much when the sweetness of the fruit was able to come through. Please note that the nutrition facts label accounts for using plain yogurt. If you use a flavored and sweetened yogurt, check the Nutrition Facts label for Added Sugar. Thanks for leaving comments!

We made this at the Boys & Girls Club and it was delicious! It could definitely be made with a lot less sugar, especially if using super ripe fruit, as we did. The kids all loved it served with vanilla yogurt and granola.

We made this recipe today with a class of 4th and 5th graders.  We ate it as a topping on the Food Hero Favorite Pancakes.  It was a big hit!  I did decrease the brown sugar by 1 tablespoon.

The filling is generally more of the issue with this recipe. This looks yummy, I'll definitely try it.

Saw this recipe on twitter, so good! I will be replacing my nightly ice-cream with this :)

This recipes is SO GOOD! I had it with gingersnap cookie crumbs. It was amazing! better than any ice-cream sundae I've ever had.
