Description

Indulge in these delightful Chocolate Banana Peanut Butter Bites, a guilt-free frozen treat that combines the classic flavors of chocolate, banana, and peanut butter. Easy to make and perfect for satisfying your sweet cravings!


Ingredients

Scale

Banana Sandwiches:

  • 2 large ripe bananas, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter

Chocolate Coating:

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips or semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp coconut oil

Optional Toppings:

  • Crushed peanuts
  • Shredded coconut
  • Sea salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare Banana Sandwiches: Spread peanut butter on half of the banana slices, then sandwich with the remaining slices to form banana ‘sandwiches’.
  2. Freeze: Place the banana sandwiches on a lined baking sheet and freeze for 30 minutes to firm up.
  3. Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in intervals, stirring until smooth.
  4. Coat Bananas: Dip each banana sandwich in the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Place back on the sheet.
  5. Add Toppings: Optionally, sprinkle with crushed peanuts, shredded coconut, or sea salt.
  6. Freeze: Freeze for an additional hour until fully hardened. Store in the freezer.

Notes

  • For lower sugar, use unsweetened peanut butter and at least 70% dark chocolate.
  • Try almond or sunflower seed butter as an allergy-friendly alternative to peanut butter.
