Peanut Butter Banana Bites

Your kids are going to love making these Frozen Banana Bites with you. This is a snack everyone in the family enjoys! I think it’s so much fun to find recipes that my kids like to eat that they will help me make. Time in the kitchen with family is so much fun.

Ingredients You Will Need:

Bananas – cut into slices.
Peanut Butter – creamy works best. Alternatives can also be used such a almond butter, etc…
Chocolate Chips – we used semi-sweet, but milk chocolate or dark chocolate can be used.
Coconut oil – butter or shortening can also be used.

How To Make Banana Bites

Line a large cookie sheet with waxed paper.
Lay the banana slices out in a single layer on the waxed paper.
Top each banana slice with approximately 1 teaspoon of peanut butter. Add another slice (if you prefer).
Melt the chocolate chips.
Dip the peanut butter banana slices into the melted chocolate.
Slide the peanut butter banana bite off of the fork back onto the waxed paper.
Repeat the process with each banana peanut butter bite. Top with colorful sprinkles if desired.
Refrigerator for one hour before serving.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer.

Do You Need Coconut Oil?

Adding coconut oil to the chocolate isn’t necessary. However, it can help to soften the frozen chocolate. You don’t want to bite into the chocolate and have it fall apart.

Just add in about one Tablespoon – that’s it! And don’t worry, the chocolate won’t have a coconut flavor.

Ingredients

▢ 3 bananas cut into slices
▢ ½ cup creamy peanut butter or allergy safe nut-free butter
▢ 12 ounce package semi-sweet chocolate chips
▢ 1 tablespoon coconut oil
▢ Sprinkles optional

Instructions

Line a large cookie sheet with waxed paper.
Peel the bananas and slice into ½ inch thick rounds. Lay the banana slices out in a single layer on the waxed paper lined cookie sheet.
Top each banana slice with approximately 1 teaspoon of peanut butter. This does not need to be an exact measurement or perfect spread. Add another banana slice on top (if you wish).
In a medium microwave safe bowl, heat the chocolate chips in a microwave in 30 second increments, stirring every 30 seconds, until completely melted. Add the coconut oil and mix until well combined.
Use a fork to dip one peanut butter topped banana slice into the melted chocolate, peanut butter side up.
Raise the slice out of the chocolate and then tap the fork on the side of the bowl to remove some of the extra chocolate. Slide the peanut butter banana bite off of the fork back onto the waxed paper.
Repeat the process with each banana peanut butter bite. Top with colorful sprinkles if desired.
Place the cookie sheet filled with the bites into the refrigerator to set for one hour before serving.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
