Peanut butter, banana and chocolate? Yes, please! "Everyone’s gonna love these chocolate peanut butter banana cups," says Rachel Maser, mom of four and founder/creator of the clean eating blog, Clean Food Crush®. "Indulgent homemade frozen treats! Yassss! Sign me up! These little cups are a really fun project to make with the kids this summer!"
When shopping for the ingredients for this frozen snack or dessert recipe, Rachel says to "look for high percentage cacao for the chocolate, and your PB [peanut butter] should really be nothing but peanuts, and maybe sea salt."
Here is your shopping list for this healthy, clean-eating chocolate banana peanut butter cups recipe: fresh bananas (read about the health benefits of bananas), dark chocolate (dark chocolate has health benefits), coconut oil and all-natural peanut butter (learn about the health benefits of peanut butter).
Serve these frozen cups as a refreshing snack, for a quick grab-and-go breakfast or for dessert after dinner. This frozen treat is a healthy alternative to ice cream, though we love ice cream!

- Add about 1 teaspoon of melted chocolate to the bottom of each cup and using a silicone brush up the muffin slots to cover the bottom and all the way up to the sides. Freeze for 10 minutes to set.
- Add in a banana slice and top with 1 teaspoon of peanut butter for each chocolate cup. Freeze that for 10 minutes.
