Ingredients
- 3 ripe but firm bananas
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)
- 2 tablespoons sprinkles (optional)
- 2 tablespoons shredded coconut (optional)
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter, for drizzling (optional)
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Peel bananas and cut them in half crosswise. Insert a wooden stick or skewer into each half.
- Place bananas on the prepared baking sheet and freeze for 1–2 hours until firm.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips with coconut oil in 20–30 second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Dip each frozen banana into melted chocolate, turning to coat evenly.
- Allow excess chocolate to drip off and return to the parchment-lined sheet.
- Immediately add desired toppings before the chocolate sets.
- Freeze again for at least 30 minutes until the chocolate shell is fully firm.
Notes
- Use firm bananas to prevent mushy texture after freezing.
- Let bananas sit at room temperature for 1–2 minutes before dipping to reduce chocolate cracking.
- Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months.
- Place parchment between layers to prevent sticking.
- Allow to sit at room temperature for 2–3 minutes before serving for best texture.
