Are frozen banana bites healthy?
This banana snack offers quick carbs, and the peanut butter offers a little bit of protein.
How do I make chocolate covered bananas?
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the bananas into 1/4” rounds. Lay half the slices on the lined pan.
- Using a spoon, top the banana slices with a dab of peanut butter. Place another slice on top. Freeze.
- Microwave the chocolate in a glass bowl, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth.
- Remove bites from the freezer and dip/roll (using 2 forks) them into melted chocolate.
- NOTE: Work quickly before the bites start to thaw and get mushy, or the chocolate starts to harden. You can choose to completely cover the banana, or dip partially.
- Arrange the bites back on baking sheet.
- Sprinkle lightly with sea salt.
- Immediately return to the freezer. Serve frozen!
Are bananas and peanut butter good for you?
YES! Fruit is good for you, it’s natural, and packed with a lot of vitamins and minerals that our bodies need. It also has a natural and a great source of carbs and energy.
What about the combination of bananas and peanut butter? This combination is the perfect combination for a snack or dessert. I also love this snack to keep in the freezer for when little kids stop by. It’s the perfect “bite” that kids love.
Variations and tips for banana bites:
- Choose a banana that’s ripe but still firm. You do not want to dip a mushy banana. Also, if it’s too firm, the taste won’t be good.
- Peanut butter can be used in different varieties. Try nut butters, creamy peanut butter, almond butter, etc.
- The chocolate can harden, so just re-microwave it if you need to for only a few seconds.
- Try using white chocolate, or other flavors of chocolate.
- Try other fruits, like strawberries or raspberries.
So set out a plate of these yummy treats, and watch them disappear–quickly!
They’re too easy to keep popping in your mouth!
ENJOY!
