Peel the banana and lay it flat on a cutting board.
Slice the banana into approximately 1/4 inch thick rounds. You should have about 10-12 slices depending on the size of the banana.
Using a butter knife or the back of a spoon, carefully spread a small amount of low-sodium peanut butter on each banana slice. Make sure not to overload the slices to maintain the balance of flavors and texture.
Evenly sprinkle mini dark chocolate chips on top of the peanut butter of each slice.
Arrange the banana slices on a serving plate or platter for presentation.
Serve immediately as a quick snack or refrigerate for up to 30 minutes to slightly firm the peanut butter and chocolate before serving.
