Ingredients

  • 1 ripe banana
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter, melted

How to Make Easy Banana Peanut Butter Bites

  1. Slice the banana into 1/4-1/2 inch slices. You should get about 16 slices from one medium banana.
  2. Add muffin liners to a mini muffin pan, or use silicone mini muffin pan.
  3. Place 1 banana slice in each muffin tin.
  4. Melt the peanut butter in the microwave for 15-30 seconds, until smooth and pourable.
  5. Pour a layer of peanut butter over each banana slice.
  6. Freeze for 1 hour, or until peanut butter is firm, and then serve!

Substitutions

Peanut Butter: Swap with almond butter, cashew butter, or sunflower seed butter for a nut-free option.

Banana: If you’re low on ripe bananas, apple slices or strawberries are a great option.


Storing Extra Frozen Peanut Butter Bites

Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.

Freezer: They’ll keep for up to 1 month. The peanut butter is less likely to melt if stored directly in the freezer.


Common Questions

Are these simple banana bites allergy-friendly?

  • They can be! To make them nut-free, use sunflower seed butter or another nut-free spread. Always check labels if serving to someone with allergies.

What can I serve these healthy peanut butter banana bites with?

  • Try serving them with a drizzle of melted chocolate, a small cup of milk, greek yogurt, or other fruits or veggies that your toddler loves!

How do I get the peanut butter to be pourable?

  • Melting it in the microwave for 15-30 seconds should bring it to a good consistency. Just make sure each banana slice has an even amount of peanut butter.
