SUNNY'S EASY PB AND J FROZEN BANANAS

Steps:

• Line a plate or baking sheet with nonstick aluminum foil. Push an ice pop stick in the center of each piece of banana, but not all the way through to the end. Stir the jam to loosen, then brush it all over each banana. Place the bananas on the lined plate and freeze until solid, about 2 hours.
• Line another plate with nonstick aluminum foil. Pour the ice cream sauce in a coffee mug or small bowl. Remove the bananas from the freezer and quickly dip each in the ice cream sauce to completely coat. Before the shell forms, place the banana on the newly prepared plate and sprinkle each with one of the toppings. Freeze until solid, 5 to 10 minutes.

3 INGREDIENT PEANUT BUTTER BANANA BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F and line the bottom of an 8 x 8 inch glass dish with parchment paper. (We also used our fingers to grease the sides of the dish with coconut oil.)
• Mash the bananas and mix together with oats and peanut butter.
• Spread the dough evenly in the prepared dish, then sprinkle with walnuts and chocolate chips. Lightly press the nuts and chocolate into the bars.
• Bake for 18-20 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 20 minutes in the pan, then slide a spatula under the parchment paper and carefully transfer the whole uncut bar onto a rack for further cooling. (You can cut the bars at this point, and eat them warm! The more time you give them to cool, the easier it will be to cut them.)

NO-BAKE PEANUT BUTTER BANANA BARS

Steps:

• 1. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray, then line with parchment paper, with overhang on all sides. 2. Process the wafers in a food processor until fine crumbs form. (You should have 1 1/2 cups crumbs.) Add the confectioners' sugar and salt and pulse until well mixed. Add the butter and 3/4 cup peanut butter and pulse, scraping the bowl occasionally, until evenly moistened. 3. Transfer to the prepared pan and spread in an even layer. Arrange the banana slices in a single layer on top and press in firmly. Freeze until set, about 30 minutes. 4. Meanwhile, combine the chocolate chips and remaining 1/4 cup peanut butter in a heatproof bowl. Set over a saucepan of simmering water and melt, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Pour over the banana layer and spread evenly. Sprinkle the peanuts on top and gently press into the chocolate mixture. 5. Freeze until firm, at least 4 hours. Lift out of the pan with the parchment overhang. Cut into 2- by 1-inch bars. Bars can be frozen in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

• Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler over just-barely simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching.
• Dip each frozen banana in the melted chocolate, spooning the chocolate over the banana to cover it completely. Roll the dipped bananas in the chopped peanuts and place on the wax paper covered baking sheet; freeze until the chocolate is firm, about 1 to 2 hours.
