    No bake peanut butter banana bread bites ingredients


    Every single ingredient used to make healthy no bake peanut butter banana bread bites were hand selected to create the most delicious & healthiest snack possible.

    Peanut Butter

    I use crunchy peanut butter all the time in healthy baking recipes. It contains healthy amounts of protein, antioxidants, and magnesium.

    Banana

    I use bananas all the time in my breakfast, snack & dessert recipes. They not only contain healthy amounts of potassium, vitamins, antioxidants, and magnesium, but they are the perfect natural sweetener to make these bites plant based & vegan!

    Maple Syrup

    This is just the best all-natural sweetener! It tastes delicious and doesn’t include nearly as much sugar as processed white sugar.

    Chocolate Chips

    When choosing my chocolate, I like to go for all-natural and organic brands. Ones that do not have preservatives or artificial ingredients! My favorite brand is Lily’s Dark Chocolate Chips!

    Coconut Flour

    When compared to all-purpose flour, coconut flour is far more nutrient-rich. In fact, this type of flour contains protein, fiber, calcium, and iron. Plus it is grain free and gluten free!

    Easy substitutions for healthy banana bread bites

    You guys probably know by now that I love simple and easy recipes! If you don’t love every ingredient in this one, I am here to help you out with a list of the very best substitutions!

    Maple syrup: Simply substitute with honey or your other favorite liquid sweetener!

    Coconut Flour: If you do not have coconut flour, you can substitute with almond flour in a 1:3 ratio (meaning 3 Tbs of almond flour for every 1 Tbs of coconut flour).

    Peanut Butter: If you are allergic to peanuts, you can used any nut butter you love!

    How to make vegan no bake peanut butter banana bread bites

    My favorite thing about this simple and easy no bake banana bread bite recipe (besides the taste of course) is how easy they are to make! For this healthy snack recipe, you’ll only need a couple of kitchen tools making the clean up super easy. You’ll just need a mixing bowl and a plate!

    First, in a large mixing bowl, mash your ripe banana with a fork. Then, mix in your salted crunchy peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. After that, add in the coconut flour and salt (if not using salted peanut butter).

    Once the dough is ready, use your hands, roll 12 – 16 balls and evenly space them across a small tray or plate.

    Then, in a microwave-safe bowl, add your favorite chocolate chips (I love using Lily’s Sugar Free Dark Chocoalte Chips) and coconut oil. Microwave for 20 seconds. Stir. Microwave again for 20 seconds. Stir. Continue this process until your chocolate is completely melted.

    Lastly, dip a fork into the dark chocolate and drizzle across the bites and let them set in the refrigerator for 10 minutes before enjoying.

    And there you go!! You just made the best ever, soft, and delicious NO BAKE banana bread energy bites.

      These were beyond easy to whip up, and they’re delicious! I sprinkled some flaky salt on top of the chocolate before popping them in the fridge to set. Truly the perfect snack & my new fav way to use up an extra ripe banana!
