Ingredients

3 ripe bananas
½ recipe vegan caramel sauce
½ cup smooth peanut butter
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tbsp coconut oil
peanuts or coarse sea salt for topping

Instructions

Line a small baking tray with parchment paper. Peel the bananas and then cut in half and then cut in half again lengthwise. Lay the bananas with the flat edge facing up on the baking tray and place in the freezer until frozen, about 30-45 minutes.
While the bananas are freezing, make the vegan caramel sauce and set aside to cool completely.
Add the coconut oil to the chooclate chips and melt. I like to use a double boiler on the stovetop but the microwave works fine.
Remove the frozen bananas from the freezer. Spread on some vegan caramel, peanut butter or whatever sauce you are using. Next, sprinkle with chopped peanuts or other toppings. Drizzle the melted chocolate on top. Top off with coarse sea salt, more chopped peanuts, or leave plain.
Place the bananas back into the frrezer to harden. Store leftover candy bars in an airtight container in the freezer. Enjoy!
