Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Bananas
- 4 tablespoons Peanut butter
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil (optional, for smoother chocolate)
- 2 tablespoons Chopped nuts (e.g., peanuts, almonds) or sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
Peel the bananas and slice them into thick coins, about 1/2 inch thick each.
Spread approximately 1/2 teaspoon of peanut butter on one side of half of the banana slices.
Top the peanut butter-coated banana slices with the remaining banana slices to form small sandwiches.
Place the banana sandwiches on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and freeze for 20 minutes to make them easier to handle.
While the banana sandwiches are freezing, prepare the chocolate coating. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and optional coconut oil.
Microwave the chocolate mixture in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Remove the banana sandwiches from the freezer. Using a fork or a toothpick, dip each sandwich into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is completely coated.
Optionally, sprinkle the dipped sandwiches with chopped nuts or sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet.
Place the chocolate-coated sandwiches back on the parchment-lined tray and return them to the freezer for at least 30 minutes or until the chocolate is fully set.
Serve straight from the freezer for a chilled treat. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week.
