👩🍳 How to Make Frozen Banana Bites
1. Slice & Fill
Peel bananas and slice into ¼-inch thick rounds. Spread a little peanut butter on half the slices and top with another banana slice to make “sandwiches.”

2. Freeze Until Firm
Place the banana sandwiches on a tray and freeze for 30–60 minutes, until firm.

3. Melt Chocolate
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips with coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.

4. Dip & Decorate
Dip each frozen banana sandwich halfway into melted chocolate. Place back on parchment and sprinkle with toppings.

5. Freeze Again & Enjoy
Return dipped banana bites to the freezer for 30 minutes, or until set. Enjoy frozen!

🧊 Leftovers & Storage
- Store in freezer in a sealed container for up to 2 months
- Separate layers with parchment to prevent sticking
- Let sit at room temp for 2–3 minutes before eating for best texture
