These kid-friendly frozen banana treats get drenched in delicious salted caramel and then covered with crunchy walnuts, almonds, peanuts and ooey-gooey melted chocolate.
Hey Guys!! I’m back with something actually sweet this week. Just because I’m not having sugar doesn’t mean that everyone has to suffer!!! Lol! That would be just cruel, right? My sweet grandgirls, Tianna and Makiyah (Be sure to meet them below in this month’s video!) came for a visit this weekend and we decided to make these Frozen Salted Caramel Banana Treats as Banana Lovers Day is vastly approaching this week. So Happy Banana Lovers Day!!! đ
Are you a banana lover? I buy them every week just for the hubby because he eats them daily so they’re always around. Some might say that they are one of the world’s healthiest foods…well maybe not after drenching them in delicious salted caramel and covering them with crunchy walnuts, almonds, peanuts and ooey-gooey melted chocolate. đ Nonetheless, the grand girls really enjoyed these Frozen Salted Caramel Banana Treats! Who wouldn’t love caramel and chocolate covered fruit?!?! Anyway, as you know, bananas are a very good source of vitamin B6 and manganese, vitamin C, potassium, dietary fiber, potassium, and biotin so this is a great way to get some of those vitamins into the kiddos during these last few weeks of summer.
Sometimes these girls can be a handful together but what they have taught me is (for one) LOOOOOOOOTS of patience and to not make things so complicated. They really know and understand how to enjoy life and not to sweat the small stuff. They don’t put on airs or try to make big impressions or hold grudges as some of us adults tend to do. Everything is simplistic and uncomplicated in their minds. God’s Word states,  “I tell you the truth, anyone who doesnât receive the Kingdom of God like a child will never enter it.” – Luke 18:17 (NLT). Although challenging for me at times, this child-like attitude toward life will definitely simplify some of life’s craziest situations and make you at least chuckle at most of it’s mishaps. I’m certainly a work in progress!! Say Grace and enjoy!!!

did not turn out well. My oven buttons are up on the back panel of the stove and I hit the wrong button and the broiler came on and the nuts burned. I will try again next week. I would like to make them for a halloween party for the church kids.I am glad I have time to practice. This getting old is not good.
