Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 banana

    medium

  • 1/4 cup peanut butter

    all natural

  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil

    melted

Directions

  1. 1

    Place a sheet of wax or parchment paper on the counter top for preparation. Set the baking cups on top.

  2. 2

    Melt chocolate in a double-boiler or in a small sauce pan over low heat. Allow to cool slightly. In the meantime, combine the melted coconut oil and peanut butter.

  3. 3

    Add approximately 1 teaspoon melted chocolate to the bottom of each baking cup, followed by one banana slice, 1 teaspoon peanut butter mixture, and lastly drop about 1/2 teaspoon melted chocolate in the center of each cup. Carefully place cups on a freezer safe dish or casserole pan. Cover and place in the freezer until set, approximately 1 hour.

  4. 4

    NOTE: Our perfectly portioned Peanut Butter Banana Cups thaw quickly. For best results, enjoy one at a time after allowing to set at room temperature about 2-3 minutes. To prevent the peanut butter mixture from softening too quickly, add 1 tablespoon powdered sugar to peanut butter and coconut oil mixture before adding to cups.

About this Recipe

Craving a simple, no-bake treat that truly satisfies your sweet tooth? These Peanut Butter Banana Cups are a delightful answer, combining the universally loved flavors of peanut butter and banana into an irresistible chocolate-covered bite.

This recipe shines through its sheer simplicity and the harmonious blend of classic ingredients. By pairing a creamy banana-filled center with a rich chocolate shell, it delivers a satisfying dessert experience with minimal effort. It's an ideal choice for when you need a quick sweet fix, requiring only 10 minutes of active preparation time.

Prepare for a truly indulgent yet refreshingly easy treat. Each cup offers a smooth, sweet banana core, perfectly complemented by the savory depth of all-natural peanut butter. This creamy filling is enveloped in a snappy layer of chocolate, enhanced by the subtle richness of coconut oil, which helps create that perfect set and mouthfeel. The result is a bite-sized dessert that’s both comforting and satisfying, delivering a delightful contrast of textures and a balanced sweet-and-salty flavor profile. You'll love how effortlessly these come together, making them perfect for any day of the week.

Customization & Variations

These Peanut Butter Banana Cups are wonderfully adaptable. If you're out of traditional chocolate chips, feel free to use dark chocolate or milk chocolate chips based on your preference. For a different twist, you could experiment with almond butter or cashew butter in place of peanut butter, altering the nutty undertones. While not explicitly stated, the ingredients listed (banana, all-natural peanut butter, chocolate chips, coconut oil) suggest this recipe is inherently plant-based, making it a fantastic option for those seeking dairy-free treats.

Serve these individual cups chilled for the very best texture and flavor. They make an excellent after-dinner treat, a satisfying afternoon snack, or even a thoughtful homemade gift.
