Ingredients

  • 2-3 bananas, sliced
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt, any flavour
  • 1 serving protein powder
  • 1/2 cup any nut or seed butter
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Instructions

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (parchment paper works best to make sure that your banana bark doesn't stick once frozen).
    Arrange your banana slices in an even layer, making sure the banana slices are touching but not overlapping. You want them all to end up as one layer so when frozen it all holds together.
    Optional: If you want a thinner banana layer, place a piece of parchment paper on top and press down on the bananas carefully with the bottom of a glass.
  • Add the yogurt, protein powder and peanut butter to a bowl. Mix well until smooth.
    Scoop the yogurt, peanut butter mixture over the bananas, and spread out in an even layer with a spatula or the back of a spoon.
  • In a small dish, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together in the microwave with 30 second bursts stirring after each one until melted. Pour and spread out over the peanut butter layer.
    Spread evenly and sprinkle with coconut flakes, salt or any other toppings of choice such as: mini M&Ms, sprinkles, chocolate chips, drizzled peanut butter, or chopped nuts.
    Freeze the banana bark for 1-2 hours or until set.
    When ready to serve, break the bark into pieces. Store leftover bark in the freezer in an airtight container or freezer safe bag.
