Ingredients
  

For the Banana Bites
  • 2 medium bananas Use ripe bananas for best sweetness and texture.
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter Can swap for powdered peanut butter for a lighter option.
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips Preferably sugar-free for a healthier option.
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil Use to ensure chocolate melts smoothly.
  • pinch flaky salt Optional topping that enhances flavor.

Equipment

  • Microwave-Safe Bowl
  • parchment-lined baking sheet
  • Forks
  • Cutting Board

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Peanut Butter Banana Bites
  1. Start by peeling the bananas and slicing them into 1/2-inch rounds, achieving about 10-12 slices.
  2. Take half of the sliced bananas and generously spread peanut butter on each. Top with the remaining banana slices.
  3. Place the assembled banana sandwiches on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring they are well spaced apart. Freeze for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Combine chocolate chips with coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  5. Dip each frozen banana sandwich in melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off, and place back on the baking sheet.
  6. Return the baking sheet to the freezer for another 30 minutes to allow chocolate to harden.
  7. Transfer the bites into an airtight container for storage. They can be kept in the freezer for up to 2 months.
