How to Make Easy Banana Peanut Butter Bites

- 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
