Description
A guilt-free dessert that’s as satisfying as a candy bar, made with ripe bananas, creamy peanut butter, dark chocolate, and topped with crunchy peanuts.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 ripe bananas
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa)

Instructions
- Prepare the Bananas: Peel and slice bananas into 1-inch thick slices.
- Make the Peanut Butter Mixture: Mix peanut butter and melted coconut oil in a small bowl until well combined.
- Assemble the Layers: Place a banana slice on a parchment-lined baking sheet, top with peanut butter, and create sandwiches with remaining slices.
