If there’s one all time loved recipe on Weelicious it’s Banana Dog Bites. I think I first made these 6 or 7 years ago and they’re still an all time classic. What’s not to love about a recipe that only uses 3 ingredients, take 2 minutes or less to prepare and looks like such fun.
Even though there are only three ingredients, there’s tons of variations you can use. I like using spelt or half whole wheat half corn tortillas I get at Trader Joes, but you can also use all white flour tortillas or something with seeds inside. The most important part is getting something that’s really flexible. Corn could work, but they would need to be really fresh. Using lavash is a fun idea too!

We'll email this post to you, so you can come back to it later!
There’s also plenty of variations with nut butters. You can use peanut, almond, cashew, soy or sun butter. You could also use whipped cream cheese in a pinch. If you’re using large tortillas and bananas it makes about 8-10 pieces which look super cute in a bento style lunchbox. Serve these with some raw veggies and maybe a little snack like a Vegan Cowgirl Cookie or Heart-Shaped Rice Crispy Treat and you’ve got a vegetarian meal I’m betting your kids will love!

My daughter thought that thie was the best lunch ever!
Great recipe!!!!
So cute, so simple, so yummy! Thanks for a quick, easy, kid-friendly recipe just in time for me to take to brunch at a friend’s house today. I know our kiddos will gobble them up. I’m also taking the Oatmeal On-The-Go bars. 🙂
You can use sunflower butter 🙂
Great for two of my kids, but any suggestions welcome for an alternative to peanut butter for my nut allergy 4 year old?
So simple and yummy! My daughter enjoyed it and I had to have one too!
These are super cute, easy, and yummy. DD LOVED them. I used whole wheat and they are a bit hit. I am planning on making them as an appetizer for a brunch next week. I am going to make one set with Nutella, apple butter, and peanut.
I love this! PB & Bananas were a special treat for my dad and me growing up. My mom thought it was gross. I need to show her this 😀
I can’t wait to make these with my three year old son. He loves helping me out in the kitchen. I also think that my thirteen year old son is going to love these as an after school snack. Thank you for the fun idea!
I read this last night while the kids were in bed. I realized I had all the ingredients and made it for my husband and I to “sample”. We are both fans of these 🙂 I might even make them for the kids….
Yum! I haven’t been able to get enough of bananas and pb lately!
Yum!
As a SunButter blogger, love all the great ideas. As a fellow mom, just made these (with SunButter of course, and a bit of honey) and packed ’em in the lunches for today. Thanks for the timely inspiration!
Can’t wait to try this! We usually make dragon skin – peanut butter and banana slices on toast – my son loves his dragon skin so I’m sure he will love this! Thanks for a great idea
I’m going to have to try this one. I bet my 2 year old would love em!
We make these too, but use a hotdog bun instead. Kids love them!
I think these would make a perfect finger food for the upcoming 3 year birthday party of my son. 😀
