These creamy frozen chocolate banana bites with peanut butter are a quick, easy, and refreshing treat perfect for summer snacking. They combine ripe bananas, peanut butter, and a crisp chocolate shell for a satisfying mini indulgence.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe medium bananas
  • ½ cup smooth or chunky peanut butter
  • 1 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • Pinch of sea salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Peel 3 ripe medium bananas and cut them into ½-inch thick rounds.
  2. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of peanut butter and set aside. Microwave for 10 seconds if stiff.
  3. Take one banana slice, spread a thin layer of peanut butter on top, then place another banana slice on top to create a mini sandwich. Repeat for all slices to make about 12 sandwiches.
  4. Lay the banana-peanut butter sandwiches on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for at least 30 minutes or until firm.
  5. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup of chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon coconut oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and shiny.
  6. Using a fork or toothpick, dip each frozen banana sandwich into the melted chocolate, coating completely. Let excess chocolate drip off before placing back on the parchment paper.
  7. While the chocolate is still wet, add a tiny pinch of sea salt to each bite.
  8. Return the coated bites to the freezer and chill for at least 1 hour or until the chocolate shell hardens.
  9. Once firm, transfer the bites to a freezer-safe container. Let them sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before enjoying.

Notes

Use ripe bananas for best creaminess. Freeze sandwiches before dipping to prevent peanut butter from oozing. Keep chocolate warm but not hot to avoid graininess. Work quickly when dipping as chocolate sets fast. Store in airtight container with parchment layers to prevent sticking.
