Ingredients and substitutions

Be sure to use bananas that are ripe but not overripe when making these treats. Bananas with a bright yellow peel and just a few brown speckles are perfect.

I like to use chopped dark chocolate when making these treats, but you can substitute chocolate chips or any type of chopped chocolate you prefer.

I like to add a sprinkle of sea salt on top of these treats because it enhances the other flavors in this recipe. You can omit the sea salt if you prefer, or substitute other toppings such as finely chopped peanuts or shredded coconut.

How to make banana peanut butter chocolate bites

Start by peeling and slicing the bananas into rounds (approximately 1/2 inch thick).

Next you’ll add the chopped dark chocolate to a pot on the stove set to low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until the chocolate has melted, then immediately remove the pot from the heat. Add the peanut butter to the pot of melted chocolate, mix until incorporated, then transfer that mixture to a bowl.

Add one of the banana slices to the bowl with the peanut butter and chocolate mixture, then gently stir to coat it completely. Use a fork to lift the banana slice out of the bowl and place it on a sheet pan or large plate lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Immediately add a small sprinkle of sea salt on top (optional).

Repeat this process with the rest of the banana slices.

Place the sheet pan or plate of banana bites in the fridge to allow the chocolate to harden for at least an hour before serving.

Storage and freezing

Store these treats in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days, or freeze them for up to three months, then thaw in the fridge for at least two hours before serving.
