    Why You'll Love This Recipe

    Easy

    Banana Bites only require 4 simple ingredients and minimal prep time! They're an easy snack for kids or adults.

    Allergy Friendly

    This recipe is naturally gluten-free and can easily be made dairy-free, nut-free, and Vegan!

    I used cashew butter as the filling, but if you have a nut allergy just swap with Sunflower Seed Butter.

    Customizable

    This bite sized treat can easily be customized by changing up the center filling, chocolate, or by adding toppings!

    Healthy

    Chocolate banana bites are a healthy treat and can be a great alternative to ice cream! Frozen bananas have a similar creamy texture and they're naturally sweet.

    They're made with just bananas, dark chocolate, and cashew butter which makes them a lower sugar and healthier dessert option.

    🍴Ingredient Notes

    Banana bite ingredients measured out.
    • Peeled Bananas - I prefer using greener bananas because they're high in resistant starch and lower in sugar. (Which is great for gut health!) You can also use ripe bananas for a sweeter treat!
    • Dark Chocolate - You can use semisweet chocolate chips, dark chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, or even a chocolate bar! My favorite dairy-free brands are Pascha and Hu Kitchen.
    • Cashew Butter - Any nut butter will work with this recipe - feel free to swap for almond butter or peanut butter! If you have a nut allergy just swap for Sunbutter or Coconut Butter.
    • Coconut Oil - I use a small amount of melted coconut oil in the chocolate to create a silky smooth consistency.

    Recipe Variations

    • To make a banana peanut butter cup, add peanut butter to a banana disc and top it with another banana disc. Dip the entire banana bite into chocolate!
    • Instead of cutting the bananas into thin slices, cut two large bananas in half and freeze with a popsicle stick through the center. Dip the banana pops into chocolate and sprinkle with your favorite toppings!
    • Dip banana bites in white chocolate for a sweeter option!
    • I like dipping half of the banana bites in chocolate, but you can completely cover them in chocolate. (Perfect for chocolate lovers!)

    🍴Step by Step Instructions

    Step 1: Peel and Slice Bananas

    Start by peeling bananas. Cut into small disks and place them on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Freeze for about 30 minutes.

    Step 2: Make Banana Sandwiches

    Next, add a generous amount of cashew butter to half of the slices. Then press another half on top of each one to make a "banana sandwich." Place back in the freezer for about 15 minutes.

    Step 3: Melt Chocolate

    Microwave the dark chocolate and coconut oil in a small bowl. (In 15-second increments.) Stir each time you remove from microwave until it's silky smooth.

    Step 4: Dip in Melted Chocolate

    Finally, dip half of each bite into the chocolate and place on the parchment paper lined baking sheet. Freeze until you're ready to enjoy!

    Expert Tips

    • Place banana discs on a parchment paper lined plate or cookie sheet before freezing for easy removal. It's also great for when you dip them in chocolate.
    • Freeze the banana slices until they easily peel off of the parchment paper. If they're still mushy it will be difficult to add the nut butter.
    • Use a fork or toothpick to dip them and let the excess chocolate drip off before setting them on parchment paper.
    • Use excess chocolate to drizzle on top of bananas!
    • Make sure you use a microwave-safe bowl when heating the chocolate.

    Fun Toppings

    • Flaky Sea Salt
    • Sprinkles
    • Shredded Coconut
    • Crushed or chopped almonds, peanuts, or cashews.

    How to store leftovers

    Leftover Banana Bites should be stored in the freezer.

    After they have set, remove from the parchment paper and place in an airtight container or bag. (Make sure it's freezer safe!)
