Anytime I can combine bananas, chocolate and peanut butter all in one bite, I am on board. Is is not the perfect combination? Even better, these are straight from the freezer so they’re ice cold which makes for the perfect midday treat to cool down on a hot summer day. That’s not to say they aren’t delicious year round though, of course!

I love this snack because it’s homemade and doesn’t have a ton of added processed ingredients like a lot of snacks you get at the grocery store. Plus, kids love helping dip the banana bites in the chocolate, so it’s a fun activity for the whole family. The way their eyes light up when I pull their creations out of the freezer is an added bonus!

Our house is never short on bananas. We use them almost every morning in smoothies, but we’re always trying to use them up in other ways. Sometimes we’ll make Banana Chocolate Chip Cookie Bread or Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins or we’ll do Frozen Bananas on a Stick which are also super fun! Bananas are such a versatile food the snacking possibilities are endless, and it doesn’t hurt that they’re also good for you.

If you or someone in your family has a nut allergy, you could substitute peanut butter for any other seed butter that you might like, or you could leave it out entirely. Any time you want to customize to fit your dietary needs, go for it!

    These were so great! Such an easy recipe & perfect when wanting a sweet but wanting it on the healthier side. Next time I will double the recipe and use more peanut butter. I did a thin layer and more would definitely be better.
