If you don’t have presliced and frozen bananas in your freezer (hello? and why not?) do this a day before.
(Optional step, skip for a more raw treat): To toast the nuts: add them to a small pan on medium heat for about 4-5 minutes, stirring often so they don’t burn. Remove from heat, transfer to a bowl and allow to cool.
Once cool, roughly chop them and return to the bowl.
To make the peanut butter mix, melt the cacao butter (bain marie method).
Add maple syrup and peanut butter and mix until you get a creamy smooth consistency.
To finish them off, dip one slice of frozen banana in the peanut butter mix, then dip it in the chopped nuts. Place on baking paper or a silicone sheet.
Continue with the rest of the banana slices.
Refrigerate for 2 minutes then enjoy!
