Description
These easy frozen banana snacks are layered with crunchy peanut butter, drizzled in dark chocolate, and topped with shredded coconut—perfect for a healthy, no-bake vegan treat.
Ingredients
3 ripe bananas (firm, not overripe)
4 tbsp crunchy peanut butter (or creamy/almond/cashew butter)
3 squares dark chocolate (dairy-free for vegan option)
¾ tsp coconut oil (or butter)
2 tbsp shredded coconut (optional; substitute with chopped nuts or granola)
Instructions
Peel the bananas. Slice each in half crosswise, then slice each half lengthwise to make 12 quarters.
Line a tray with parchment paper and arrange the banana slices on it.
Spread about 1 tsp peanut butter on each banana quarter.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt dark chocolate and coconut oil in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the peanut butter-topped bananas.
Sprinkle shredded coconut or preferred toppings over each piece.
Freeze for 1–2 hours, or until solid.
Let sit at room temperature for 2–3 minutes before serving for optimal texture.
Notes
Use sunflower seed butter for a nut-free version.
Try dipping bananas halfway into the chocolate for a richer coating.
Toppings like chopped nuts, granola, sea salt, or dried fruit add fun variations.
Store in layers with parchment between them to prevent sticking.
Keeps in the freezer for up to 1 month.
