Frozen Banana Bites Recipe
If you’re looking for a snack that’s both satisfying and a little healthier than a deep-fried chocolate bar, then look no further! The recipe is super simple to prepare and offers a great way to use those ripe bananas lying around. Plus, who doesn’t love chocolate and peanut butter? It’s like a dream come true for your mouth!
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 1/2 cup creamy or chunky peanut butter (we don’t judge!)
- 1 cup of chocolate chips (dark, milk, or whatever floats your boat)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (to make your chocolate shiny)
- A pinch of sea salt (optional but totally fancy)
- Chopped nuts or sprinkles for topping (if you’re feeling wild)
Instructions
- Peel those sexy bananas and slice them into thick, bite-sized rounds—think about the size of a little coin but way more tasty.
- Grab a mixing bowl, and introduce the peanut butter and the banana slices. Ensure each slice gets a good slathering of that peanut butter magic. Who doesn’t want peanut butter kissing their bananas?
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or just use that trusty silicone mat if you’ve got one. Place your banana-peanut butter creations on the sheet, giving them enough personal space to chill.
- Now, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together in the microwave or on the stovetop. Stir until it’s a smooth and luscious pool of chocolate goodness.
- Take each peanut butter-slathered banana slice and dunk it in the chocolate—coat it like you mean it!
- Return the chocolate-covered bananas to the baking sheet, and if you’re feeling fancy, sprinkle them with nuts or sea salt.
- Pop that baking sheet in the freezer for at least 2 hours, or until they’re solid as a rock (a delicious rock that you can enjoy later).
- Once frozen, transfer your banana bites to an airtight container and keep them in the freezer. They last about a week—if you can resist devouring them all at once!
And there you have it! Your gateway to snack heaven. Enjoy these little bites of happiness on a hot day, during a Netflix binge, or just because it ends in ‘y’!
