Yep...you read that right.
Peanut butter, banana, cinnamon, bacon, magic shell, & sundae...on a website dedicated to "skinny" recipes.
Yes, siree buddy bob boo...this bad boy is sinfully decadent and screams HEART ATTACK IN A BOWL yet it will do no such thing.
Not on my watch, transparent online minions, not on my watch.
I would never post something that I thought went against my
It's hard to believe this is healthy, I know.
But, if you've hitched a ride on the magical bus known as the banana soft serve phenomenon, then you know that desserts like this do exist.
Never heard of banana soft serve?
Please allow me to introduce you to my little friend...
Frozen bananas + a food processor, Vitamix, or powerful blender= the silkiest, smoothest, sweetest, healthiest, and sinless homemade soft serve ice cream that you will ever eat.
Seriously. It's that easy.
And you will never want to buy ice cream again.
Not even kidding you.
When I first saw the idea on
Ok, so maaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe the bacon is just a little over the top.
But come on, peanut butter and banana alone is just dull and boring, and bacon just gives this dish that extra dash of sass that it begged for.
Bacon slathered in cinnamon & honey and crumbled over fresh banana soft serve and home made chocolate peanut butter magic shell and it's only 184 calories a bowl?!?
Uuum, yeah...how could you possibly resist?
Getting to know you...
Have you ever had bacon in your dessert?
Have you made banana soft serve yet?

Sinless & Delicious Peanut Butter, Banana, & Cinnamon Bacon Magic Shell Sundae
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 1 slice all natural center cut applewood smoked bacon
- ½ teaspoon honey
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 ½ teaspoon pure coconut oil measured solid
- 1 teaspoon all natural crunchy peanut butter or other nut butter
- 1 teaspoon dark chocolate cocoa powder
- 10-20 liquid stevia drops to taste
- sprinkles optional
Instructions
- Peel bananas and place on a freezer safe plate. Freeze until solid about 2-3 hours.
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Mix honey and cinnamon in a small ramekin and slather on both sides of the bacon.
- Place bacon on a cookie sheet lined with tin foil and roast until crispy. About 20 minutes. NOTE= You can make more than one piece here and save some for breakfast!
- Remove from oven and drain on a paper towel.
- In a small bowl, add coconut oil and peanut butter and microwave for 30 seconds. Add cocoa powder and stir, stir, stir until lumps dissolve. Taste for sweetness and add stevia drops to your liking. Note: The coconut oil will harden once it hits the cold bananas turning it into natural magic shell!
- Pop the bananas in the microwave and defrost for 15 seconds. If they still seem too hard, defrost for another 15 seconds.
- Cut the bananas into four pieces and add them to the food processor.
- Pulse until the large chunks are broken up and then blend until smooth.
- Spoon the banana soft serve into two bowls, drizzle with the magic shell, and sprinkle each with half a slice of crumbled bacon.
- Enjoy!

You know I'm all over that. Banana soft serve does indeed rock. I'm still not giving up my Jeni's Dark Chocolate or Buckeye State though! 🙂
