how to make these healthy snickers bites

these healthy snickers couldn’t be easier to make! you start with laying the banana slices flat on a baking tray (lined with wax paper). on top of each banana slice you will add about 1 tsp of creamy peanut butter.

spread the peanut butter in an even layer to cover the entire banana slice. on top of the peanut butter add a couple peanuts. this will give the bites a nice crunch!

last, but not least, drizzle melted chocolate all over the bites. who doesn’t love chocolate, right? put them into the freezer for a minimum of 1 hour and enjoy!

frequently asked questions

do i have to use peanut butter?

nope! you can use any nut butter that you’d like or have on hand.

how long can they stay out of the freezer before melting?

i would say about 5-10 minutes depending on how long they’ve been in the freezer. i suggest taking out how many you want to eat at a time and putting the tray/container back into the freezer so they don’t melt.

how should i store these?

after the initial freeze, store flat in a sealed container that is freezer safe. you can store these for up to 1 month!
