Ingredients
  

  • 3–4 ripe (but firm) bananas – spotty is okay, overly soft is not
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter – natural or classic, your choice
  • 1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate (60–72%)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil – helps the chocolate set smoothly
  • Flaky sea salt – for finishing
  • Optional add-ins: crushed peanuts, toasted coconut, mini chocolate chips
  • Tools: parchment-lined baking sheet, fork or dipping tool, microwave-safe bowl (or double boiler)

Instructions
 

  • Prep the bananas: Peel and slice into 1/2-inch rounds. Aim for even thickness so they freeze and sandwich well.
  • Make banana “sandwiches”: Place half the slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Add a small dollop (about 1/2 teaspoon) of peanut butter to each, then top with another slice to make a bite-size sandwich. Chill in the freezer for 20–30 minutes until firm.
  • Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine dark chocolate and coconut oil. Microwave in 20–30 second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth. Or melt gently over a double boiler.
  • Dip the bites: Working quickly, dip each frozen banana sandwich halfway or fully in the melted chocolate. Let excess drip off, then place back on the parchment.
  • Finish with salt: Immediately sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over the chocolate before it sets. Add any optional toppings now.
  • Set and freeze: Return the tray to the freezer for 30–45 minutes, until the chocolate is firm and the bites are solid.
  • Serve: Enjoy straight from the freezer or let them sit at room temperature for 2–3 minutes for a slightly softer texture.
