Ingredients

• 2 Ripe bananas
• 4 tablespoons Peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)
• 6 tablespoons Unsweetened shredded coconut
• 1 tablespoon Honey (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the bananas and cut each one in half lengthwise to create two long banana halves per fruit. Alternatively, slice them into thick rounds for bite-sized portions if preferred.

Step 2

Spread 1 tablespoon of peanut butter over each banana half. If using slices, smear a small amount of peanut butter on each slice.

Step 3

Place the shredded coconut on a plate or shallow bowl. Gently press the peanut butter-coated side of each banana into the shredded coconut to coat it evenly.

Step 4

If desired, drizzle a small amount of honey over the coconut-draped bananas for added sweetness.

Step 5

Optionally, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the bananas for a fancier touch.

Step 6

Serve immediately as a snack or light dessert. Enjoy the creamy, nutty, and tropical flavors!
