Description

These Frozen Banana Snickers Bites are a delightful no-bake treat combining the natural sweetness of bananas with rich caramel, creamy peanut butter, crunchy peanuts, and smooth chocolate. Perfect as a healthier snack or dessert, they are easy to make and can be stored in the freezer for a cool, satisfying bite anytime.


Ingredients

Banana Base

  • 2 to 3 bananas, sliced into rounds

Toppings

  • ¼ cup caramel (or date caramel for a healthier option)
  • ¼ cup runny peanut butter
  • 2 to 4 tablespoons roasted peanuts, chopped
  • ¼ cup chocolate chips
  • 2 teaspoons coconut oil


Instructions

  1. Prepare the base: Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and place the banana slices in a single layer, ensuring there is a small gap between each slice to prevent sticking.
  2. Add caramel and peanut butter: Drizzle the caramel over all the banana slices, followed by a drizzle of runny peanut butter, making sure each slice is evenly coated for maximum flavor.
  3. Sprinkle peanuts: Evenly sprinkle the chopped roasted peanuts on top of the caramel and peanut butter-covered banana slices to add a crunchy texture.
  4. Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave on high in 20-second intervals, stirring thoroughly between each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
  5. Drizzle chocolate and freeze: Drizzle the melted chocolate over the banana slices, covering them generously. Place the sheet pan in the freezer and allow the bites to freeze for 1 to 2 hours or until firm.
  6. Serve or store: Once frozen, enjoy the bites immediately or transfer them carefully to a freezer-safe bag for storage. Keep frozen until ready to enjoy again.

Notes

  • Use date caramel for a natural sweetener alternative to traditional caramel.
  • Ensure the peanut butter is runny for easier drizzling; slightly warming it can help.
  • Chop peanuts roughly for a better texture contrast in each bite.
  • When melting chocolate, avoid overheating to prevent grainy texture.
  • Store finished bites in an airtight container or freezer bag to prevent freezer burn.
  • These bites are best consumed within 1 week for optimal flavor and texture.
  • You can substitute chocolate chips with dark chocolate for a richer taste.
  • For a nut-free version, omit peanuts and peanut butter and use sunflower seed butter with seeds.
