Instructions

Critical Control Point (CCP): No bare-hand contact with ready-to-eat food.

  1. Freeze bananas at least one day prior to service. To freeze, peel bananas and lay on sheet pan prepared with parchment paper. Do not overlap or pile the bananas. They will stick together. Cover and place in freezer overnight. Once frozen, bananas can be stored together.
  2. Place applesauce in refrigerator day before making smoothies.
  3. Place applesauce, yogurt, peanut butter, frozen bananas and ice cubes in 5-gallon bucket. Blend using immersion blender until pureed and smooth. Taste test smoothie. If texture is not smooth, continue to blend.
    Note: A 5-gallon bucket can hold 56 servings.
  4. Pour 8-ounce smoothies into 9-ounce cups evenly and top with lid.

CCP: Hold and serve at 41° F or below.

CCP: No bare-hand contact with ready-to-eat food.

Tips

  • 8 ounces EP bananas = 12.5 ounces AP bananas or ~2 bananas or 1 cup puree.
  • ½ cup applesauce = ½ cup fruit puree.
  • Fruit (puree) in smoothies credits as fruit juice. Fruit puree was weighed and measured without the addition of water or other ingredients.
  • Pair with one more item to credit as a reimbursable breakfast meal!
  • Add frozen bananas last. If placed on the bottom, they do not blend well.
