Main Ingredients
  • 2 large large firm, ripe bananas About 240g total.
  • 2-3 tablespoons natural creamy peanut butter (unsweetened) Adjust according to taste.
  • 2 tablespoons roasted unsalted peanuts Roughly chopped.
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips 70% cacao or higher.
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil To thin the chocolate.
  • Sea salt flakes Optional, for garnish.
Optional Add-Ins
  • mini pretzel pieces For added crunch.
  • shredded coconut For a toasty finish.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Slice the bananas into thick coins about 1/2 inch each, aiming for 16-20 coins.
  2. Arrange the banana coins on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer and freeze for 15-20 minutes.
Assembly
  1. Spread about 1/2 teaspoon peanut butter on each frozen banana coin.
  2. Sprinkle each coated bite with chopped peanuts and optionally sea salt, or any desired add-ins.
Coating
  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 15-second bursts until melted and smooth.
  2. Drizzle or dip the banana bites in the melted chocolate for your preferred coating thickness.
Freezing & Serving
  1. Return the tray to the freezer for 30-60 minutes until the chocolate is hard and the bananas are frozen solid.
  2. Let the bites sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before serving.
Storage
  1. Store leftovers in a freezer-safe container to avoid freezer odors.

Notes

For best results, follow the precautions against common mistakes: slice bananas thickly, freeze briefly before assembly, and avoid overheating the chocolate.
