Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 4 tablespoons peanut butter (smooth or crunchy as preferred)
- 100 grams chocolate (dark, milk, or semi-sweet, chopped or in chips)
Instructions
- Slice Bananas: Peel the bananas and cut them into thick slices, about 1/2 inch each, to make sturdy bases and tops for the treat.
- Assemble Layers: Place half of the banana slices on a lined tray or plate. Spread a thin layer of peanut butter evenly over each banana slice. Top each peanut butter spread slice with another banana slice to create a banana-peanut butter-banana sandwich.
- Freeze the Sandwiches: Place the assembled banana sandwiches in the freezer and chill for at least 1 hour until firm.
- Melt the Chocolate: While the banana sandwiches freeze, melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each, until smooth and fully melted.
- Coat the Sandwiches: Remove the frozen banana sandwiches from the freezer and dip each sandwich into the melted chocolate, using a fork to fully coat them. Let excess chocolate drip off.
- Final Freeze: Place the chocolate-coated banana sandwiches back on the lined tray and freeze again for at least 30 minutes or until the chocolate is set and firm.
- Serve: Enjoy immediately after freezing or store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week.
Notes
- Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and better flavor.
- Peanut butter can be substituted with any nut or seed butter if preferred.
- For an extra crunch, sprinkle chopped peanuts or nuts between the peanut butter and banana layer before freezing.
- To melt chocolate evenly, avoid overheating by stirring frequently.
- These treats are best enjoyed cold straight from the freezer.
