Frozen Banana Peanut Butter Bites

If you love banana and peanut together, you should try these refreshing and healthy chocolate-covered frozen banana peanut butter bites!

Today I am sharing my delicious chocolate peanut butter banana bites.

These frozen snacks are healthy, so easy to make and refreshing.  You need to slice the bananas,  cover the two sides with peanut butter and dip them into melted chocolate.

These healthy frozen bites are perfect treats not only for summer but any time of the year!

I use my healthy homemade peanut butter.  As the bananas are too sweet, I don’t add honey to my peanut butter.  But I have to say that I love banana, peanut butter and honey combination a lot. If you haven’t tried my banana peanut butter overnight oats yet, you should make them soon.  They are so delicious and very filling.

But now, let’s see how I make this chocolate-covered frozen treat.

How To Make Chocolate Covered Bananas with Peanut Butter

First I slice the bananas almost 1 inch thick(2,5cm).  Then I cover 2 sides of the bananas with peanut butter.  I use almost 1,5 teaspoon of peanut butter to cover a slice.

If you like you can cover only the top of the banana.  But I advise you to cover two sides as I dip the bottom side to chocolate and chocolate-peanut butter combination is so good.

After I cover the slices with peanut butter, I place them on the parchment paper.  Then I insert the lollipop sticks, making sure that they don’t reach to the very end of the slices.

Later I keep the slices in the freezer until the bananas and peanut butter are frozen for almost 2-2,5 hours.

When the bananas are frozen, I melt the chocolate over bain-marie.  I put the chopped chocolate into a heatproof bowl that sits over a pan of simmering water. Then I stir the chocolate often until totally melted. 

Sometimes I melt the chocolate in the oven at 210°F (100°C).  Again, I place the chopped chocolate into a heat proof bowl. 

I check the oven often and stir when it starts to melt.  If there are some pieces not melted, I continue melting in the oven and stir again.

I remove the bananas from the freezer when the chocolate is just melted. I  gently remove the bananas from the parchment paper. 

If the peanut butter gets soft and the bottom of the peanut butter sticks to paper, you can easily remove the slices with the help of a knife.  It is very easy to stick it to the banana’s bottom again in 2 seconds. 

I dip the bites into melted chocolate, gently tap the sticks on the side of the bowl to remove the excess chocolate. 

As the bananas are cold, the chocolate sets quickly.   You can eat them immediately or keep them in the fridge until it is all frozen again for almost 2 hours.

Don’t forget that bananas become soft very easily so remove these bites when you are ready to eat.

I hope you enjoy these dark chocolate peanut butter bites as much as I do!
