Instructions:

Prepare the Bananas:
Peel the bananas and slice them into 1/2 inch thick rounds.

Make Almond Milk: In a blender, combine 7 to 14 almonds with one cup of water and blend until smooth to create fresh almond milk.

Create Chocolate Drizzle: Mix a desired amount of cacao powder into the almond milk, adding a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor. Adjust the thickness to your drizzling preference.

Drizzle over Bananas: Arrange the banana slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet and drizzle them with the almond-cacao mixture.

Add Toppings: Quickly sprinkle the slices with crushed nuts if using, pressing them slightly to stick.

Freeze: Place the tray in the freezer and freeze the banana bites for about 2 hours, or until they are solid.

Serve with Garnish: Once frozen, optionally dust with powdered monkfruit for a zero-calorie sweet finish.

Note: For an added touch of convenience and a fun twist, feel free to insert skewers into the banana slices before freezing. They’ll turn into delightful pops that are perfect for serving at parties or as a grab-and-go treat on a busy day. Let’s create memories, one banana bite at a time!

Enjoy: Serve these refreshing banana bites as a delightful and wholesome frozen snack, perfect for a hot summer day or as a light dessert.
