Tips

• You can use other flavored yogurt, but Greek yogurt provides a thicker, creamier texture and more protein.
• Choose natural peanut butter. Avoid options with added sugars or hydrogenated oils.
• For a bite that’s not so sweet, use dark chocolate. This has a higher cocoa content and less sugar.
• For a uniform mixture, you can mash the bananas. This ensures a smooth texture in the filling.
• Let the chocolate cool slightly before dipping. This prevents it from melting too quickly.
• Freeze bites completely before dipping. This ensures a clean, even coating.
• Experiment with toppings: Add a sprinkle of sea salt, chopped nuts, or coconut flakes for extra flavor.

Can I Use Frozen Bananas?

While it's possible, fresh bananas are recommended for a smoother texture. If using frozen bananas, let them thaw slightly before mashing.

What Kind Of Chocolate Should I Use?

Dark chocolate is generally preferred for its rich flavor and higher cocoa content. However, milk or white chocolate can be used based on personal preference.

Can I Make These Dairy-Free?

Yes, you can substitute Greek yogurt with dairy-free alternatives like coconut yogurt or plant-based yogurt.

How Long Will These Last In The Freezer?

Properly stored, these bites can last in the freezer for up to 2 months.
