IMG_7047.jpeg

These are the perfect snack or dessert for my fellow peanut butter lovers out there! They taste like such a decadent treat, but they are made from just a few simple and healthy ingredients! The peanut butter banana combo is tough to beat in my opinion. You can add in some chocolate chips if you want to make them feel a bit more special.

Ingredients:

For the crust:

  • 1 cup almond flour

  • ¼ cup ground flax

  • ¼ cup maple syrup

  • 3 tbsp coconut oil, melted

  • 1 tbsp cinnamon

  • ⅛ tsp salt

For the filling:

  • 1 cup smooth peanut butter

  • 1 ½ bananas

  • ¾  cup water 

  • 3 tbsp coconut oil

  • 3 tbsp maple syrup

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • ⅛ tsp salt

Directions:

  • Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper

  • Add all ingredients for the crust into a mixing bowl and combine with a spatula.

  • Using the spatula or your hands, press the crust mixture into your baking dish creating an even layer.

  • In a blender, combine all ingredients for the filling. Blend until smooth and pour on top of crust.

  • Freeze for 3-4 hours or until set. Then cut into squares and enjoy! Store remaining bars in the freezer in an airtight container.
