Ingredients

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, regular or dairy-free
  • 1 medium banana, sliced into 12 even slices
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter, or nut butter or choice
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • 2 tbsp chopped hazelnuts

Garnishments (optional):

  • Coarse sea salt
  • shaved chocolate

Instructions

  • To a small saucepan over low-heat, melt the chocolate chips. Stirring as they melt.
    Microwave: Add chocolate chips to a medium, microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until melted.
  • Melt coconut oil in a microwave-safe dish for 10-15 seconds. Remove and combine with peanut butter.
  • To each liner add:
    - 1/2 tbsp melted chocolate
    - 1 banana slice
    - 1 tsp peanut butter mix
    - 1/2 tbsp melted chocolate
    - 1/2 tsp chopped hazelnuts
  • Place into the freezer for a minimum of 1 hour.
  • Serve garnished with coarse sea salt and shaved chocolate, if desired.
    Best if stored frozen. Will keep up to 1 month in the freezer. When ready to enjoy, simply remove from the freezer and let sit for 2-3 minutes before indulging.

Notes

 

HELPFUL TIPS

  • I find it best to add these bites to mini cupcake liners and freezing them within a mini cupcake pan. I find that it helps to keep its shape if confined.
  • If you don't have mini cupcake liners and the mini cupcake pan, then you can simply dip a peanut butter (minus the coconut oil) topped banana slice into the chocolate, place onto a piece of parchment paper to solidify, and top with hazelnuts.
  • These keep best frozen. Simply remove one from the freezer when ready to indulge and allow to sit for 2-3 minutes before sinking your teeth into it.
  • If you don't have coconut oil, simply omit and spread the peanut butter over the top of the banana slice before adding it to the liner. Then top with more chocolate.
