Frozen Peanut Butter Banana Bite

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Cut 4 bananas into ¼-inch slices and place them on the baking sheet.

Freeze for 1 hour or overnight. If freezing overnight, place a second sheet of parchment paper over banana slices and wrap in plastic wrap.

Spread ¼ cup peanut butter evenly over half the slices. Place the remaining slices on top of the peanut butter, creating a banana sandwich.

Freeze for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Melt 1-½ cups chocolate chips with 1-½ tsp vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl for 30 seconds. Stir and continue heating 15 seconds at a time until chocolate iscompletely melted and smooth.

Tip: REESE’S Peanut Butter Chips can be used in place of the semi-sweet chips by increasing vegetable oil to 2-½ tsp. To coat bananas with semi-sweet chips on one side and peanut butter chips on the other, use ¾ cup of each chip and divide the amount of vegetable oil needed for each by half.

Line another baking sheet with parchment paper.

Working one at a time, insert a toothpick in the top or side of a banana sandwich. Dip half of the banana into the chocolate, shake off excess chocolate and place on the new baking sheet.

To remove the toothpick, use a fork to help stabilize the banana while pulling the toothpick out. If bananas defrost while dipping, return to the freezer to ensure the chocolate sticks.

Tip: To fully enrobe, return bananas to the freezer for 30 minutes and repeat the dipping steps for the other half.
