Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 whole bananas
- 1 cup granola
- 0.5 cup peanut butter (or any nut butter)
- 0.25 cup chocolate chips (optional)
- 6 pieces popsicle sticks
- 1 sheet parchment paper
Instructions
Peel the bananas and slice each one in half crosswise, creating 6 banana halves.
Insert a popsicle stick into the cut end of each banana half. Set these aside.
Spread the granola on a plate or shallow dish.
If using chocolate chips, mix them into the granola for added texture and flavor.
Using a butter knife or small spatula, spread a thin, even layer of peanut butter over each banana half.
Roll the peanut butter-coated bananas in the granola mixture, pressing gently to ensure the granola adheres to the banana.
Place the coated banana sticks on a sheet of parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours for a firmer texture.
