These bite-sized frozen banana bites are healthy and easy to make. The combination of bananas, peanut butter, and chocolate make for an especially addictive treat.

Did you know that bananas are the cheapest fruit in the U.S.?

You can usually purchase 2 to 3 bananas for under $1.00 – probably the best deal at the grocery store.

Incorporating more bananas into your daily diet can certainly help you save money on food. The trick is finding new ways to use them. I, myself, rarely just eat a plain banana.

But recently I’ve been researching “alternative” banana recipes and have found an abundance of fun and creative ideas.

This particular recipe is one I found on Pinterest. I like it because it’s pretty healthy – but still indulgent.

Dark chocolate, peanut butter, and bananas – I think this combination is a satisfactory alternative to brownies or chocolate cake. Yum.

These Must Be Served Frozen!

Please note, these must be served frozen. I accidentally left some frozen bananas on the countertop, and when I returned a little while later, they were thawed, soggy, and brown. Ew!

Get creative with your toppings! I used coconut flakes, sunflower seeds, and candy sprinkles. You could also use chopped pistachios or peanuts, dried fruit, poppy seeds - or whatever else you have on hand.
