All you need is 2 medium ripe bananas, 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter, 3/4 cup baking chocolate (dark or semi-sweet), 1 1/2 tablespoons avocado oil, and cayenne pepper (optional). Instructions:
1. Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice each banana into thin slices and arrange half the pieces on the baking sheet.
