How to Make Frozen Bananas
Step 1: Prep the Bananas
Peel the bananas and cut them in half. Then slice each half lengthwise so you have flat banana pieces.
Step 2: Arrange on a Sheet Pan
Place the banana slices onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or tray.

Step 3: Melt the Peanut Butter
Microwave the peanut butter in 30-second intervals until smooth and pourable.
Step 4: Add the Toppings
Drizzle peanut butter and honey over the banana slices. Sprinkle with mini chocolate chips and flaky sea salt.
Step 5: Freeze
Freeze for about 30 minutes, or until firm. Enjoy immediately straight from the freezer!

How To Store Frozen Bananas
Store frozen banana treats in the freezer for up to 2 days for the best texture.
For best results:
- Once fully frozen, lightly cover or loosely store in a freezer-safe container
- Keep them in a single layer
- Avoid sealing them in an airtight container immediately after freezing, which can make the bananas mushy
