These chocolate peanut butter covered bananas are SO easy to make and require just 3 minimal ingredients: bananas, chocolate and peanut butter (which are by the way my 3 favorite foods haha). These are such an easy and delicious treat to make! They stay good stored in the freezer for up to six months. I’m all about simple dessert recipes!

Making these chocolate covered bananas are a fun activity so if you have children definitely get them involved! It makes a fun summertime creative project for your little ones! There’s nothing my daughter loves more than dipping the banana in the melted chocolate.

I love that you can even make these ahead of time for a delicious sweet treat. I make a big batch and then snack on one whenever my sweet tooth kicks in. I also feel like this is a much better dessert option than most other things I could be giving my children.

This delicious sweet treat is gluten-free and vegan. Make sure to use a dairy-free chocolate if you’re vegan or dairy-free. Speaking of chocolate… I opt for a dark chocolate with very minimal ingredients. As for the peanut butter… you’ll want to opt for a creamy one that can easily be drizzled over the frozen bananas.

I am SUCH a peanut butter lover and for good reason! Not only do I love the taste, but it’s packed with good fat which helps to keep me feeling full and satisfied. I also love the fact that peanut butter contains protein! In a 2 tablespoon serving of peanut butter you get 8 grams of protein. Also, not to state the obvious but this recipe combines chocolate and peanut butter – is there any better combination on this planet?!

Creamy chia pudding with all the toppings - love t Creamy chia pudding with all the toppings - love this for a satisfying breakfast! Chia seeds are packed with fiber and most of us don’t get enough fiber in our diets...

To make the chia pudding: in a blender add 1 cup almond milk, 1/4 cup chia seeds & 1/2 ripe banana (the banana is optional, but I love that it naturally sweetens it & makes it nice and creamy. Blend then pour into a jar and refrigerate overnight (or for at least an hour). Add desired toppings. I love fresh berries, grain-free granola & hemp seeds. Love some almond butter drizzled on top too!

I remember about two years ago I had a cough that I remember about two years ago I had a cough that was lingering so I went to a doctor that I had never been to before just to get checked out and make sure everything was okay. The doctor spent under 5 minutes with me, barely checked me out and almost immediately wrote me a prescription for an antibiotic. I was questioning why I was taking an antibiotic and he didn’t really take the time to explain and rushed off to another patient. I trusted my gut instinct that I didn’t need an antibiotic (I am definitely open to taking them was necessary), and 5 days later my cough went away on its own. I could dive deeper into this, but wanted to share that I am so glad I have found a doctor that spends adequate time with me - whenever I need - for as long as I need. You deserve that!! We all deserve that. 

I’m so lucky to be in such great hands with @steadymd - they’re an online doctor that’s available via an app on your phone and you can reach out with anything anytime! I spent over an hour last week on the phone with my functional MD going over bloodwork. All of my questions were thoroughly answered. A functional MD is the best fit for ME (my doc takes a whole person approach to health & understands things like training, recovery & nutrition), but whats so great is SteadyMD matches you with a doctor that aligns with YOU and your specific medical needs, diet, lifestyle and goals, not just someone who's local based on a quick quiz you take! 

SteadyMD is so convenient and refreshing and is EXACTLY what I've been looking for in a doctor. Plus it's super convenient - No co-pays. No waiting rooms. Just unlimited access to a doctor who “gets” you.

Click the link in my bio or visit steadymd.com/leahsplate to get started. 

Thank you so much to SteadyMD for partnering on this post! I’m so grateful to partner with a company I believe in so much 🤍
