Banana and Chocolate Bites
Check out these delightful treats, a great mix of nut butter, banana and chocolate and super low in sugar too.
Ingredients
3 ripe bananas*
1/3 cup (85g) natural peanut butter
1/2 cup (90g) dark chocolate chips
2 tsp. coconut oil
* Use these ingredients sparingly during your weight loss phase.
Method
Peel and slice the bananas. Line a tray or chopping board with baking paper.
Place about ½ teaspoon of peanut butter onto the banana slices and top with another banana slice to make a little ‘sandwich’.
You should be able to make around 30 sandwiches.
Place the bananas on earlier prepared baking paper and store in the freezer for about 1 hour.
Next, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in the microwave or using the water bath method.
Once the chocolate is melted, dip each frozen banana sandwich into the melted chocolate so that half of it is coated.
Place the chocolate covered sandwiches back on the baking tray, and into the freezer for another 15-20 mins.
Once the chocolate is set, you can transfer the bananas into a container and store in the freezer for up to 1-2 months.
The longer the bananas stay in the freezer, the harder they will get. So remove them from the freezer for about 5 minutes
before eating.
