All you need is a few simple ingredients and a few minutes of your time. You can eat them right away or store them in the freezer for later. Since sliced banana doesn’t store well in the fridge or at room temp, I do suggest popping them in the freezer if not eaten right away. I actually like them frozen. Plus, with the crunch of the pretzel, the sweetness of the chocolate, and the creaminess of the peanut butter and banana, you can customize the recipe to whatever you and your family are craving. Not to mention, they’re fun to assemble and look as good as they taste. So why not make a batch and let everyone enjoy a delectable treat?

For this recipe, I like to pick slightly less ripe bananas as they are a bit more firm. For the chocolate, I like these chocolate chips. They have less sugar and amazing ingredients. The peanut butter I use is always the Costco one. Peanuts are the only ingredients, it has great flavor, and it’s runny so it’s easy to use. You can also top it with a little sprinkle of sea salt too. We eat them after the chocolate hardens but if I can sneak a few away, I like to pop them in the freezer. They make great frozen treats.

INGREDIENTS FOR THE CHOCOLATE-DIPPED PEANUT BUTTER BITES


  • Chocolate chips or any chocolate you like for melting
  • Bananas
  • Pretzels
  • Peanut butter

HOW TO MAKE CHOCOLATE-DIPPED PEANUT BUTTER BITES


  • Chop the bananas
  • Melt the chocolate in the microwave for 30 seconds increments, stirring after each time.
  • Spoon a little peanut butter over the banana slice. Top with a pretzel then dip in the chocolate.
  • Let dry on parchment paper. You can also add a sprinkle of sea salt.
  • Store leftovers in the freezer.

TIPS AND COMMON QUESTIONS FOR THE CHOCOLATE-DIPPED PEANUT BUTTER BITES


  • What’s the best chocolate to use? I like using dark chocolate but milk or something in between works great too.
  • How to store these? Because the banana is fresh, store the bites in the freezer to prevent browning. Or eat them right away. They usually don’t last long!
