Peanut Butter Banana Bites
Ingredients
- 3 ripe bananas
- 1/3 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil
Preparation
Peel and slice bananas into rounds about 1/4 inch thick
Line a platter or small baking sheet with parchment paper
Place about 1/2 teaspoon of #peanutbutter on a banana slice and top with another banana slice to make a little banana peanut butter sandwich
Keep doing this until all banana slices are used and you have about 30 bites
Place bites on two plates and place in the freezer to harden for about 1 hour
Once banana bites have been in the freezer for over an hour, melt your chocolate by adding chocolate and coconut oil to a microwave-safe bowl
Microwave for 1 minute, stir and microwave in additional 30 second increments until chocolate is completely melted
This shouldn’t take more than 2 minutes of microwave time
Once chocolate is melted, remove one platter of your frozen banana bites from the freezer
Dip each frozen #banana bite into the melted #chocolate so that half of each bite is coated
Place chocolate covered bites back on the parchment lined platter
Place back in freezer to harden up, grab your second platter and continue until all the bites have been dipped
Let both platters of chocolate covered bites harden in the freezer for about 15 minutes
At this point you’re ready to enjoy or you can transfer the bites into a freezer safe storage container for later
They should last a least 1-2 months in the freezer
When you store the banana bites for a longer period of time, they can get pretty hard so you’ll want to take them out the freezer and let them thaw for about 5 minutes before eating
