Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces ripe bananas
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 0.25 cup sprinkles
- 0.25 cup chopped nuts
- 0.25 cup shredded coconut (optional)
- 8 pieces wooden popsicle sticks
- 1 sheet parchment paper
Instructions
Peel the bananas and cut each one in half crosswise to create 8 halves.
Insert a wooden popsicle stick into the flat end of each banana piece, pushing it halfway in to secure.
Place the banana halves on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 1 hour, or until firm.
In a heatproof bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Melt them together by microwaving in 20-second intervals, stirring between each session, until smooth and fully melted.
Pour the melted chocolate into a tall glass or container to make dipping easier.
Prepare your toppings (e.g., sprinkles, nuts, coconut) in separate shallow bowls for easy access.
Remove the frozen banana halves from the freezer. Dip each one into the melted chocolate, tilting the glass if necessary to coat evenly. Quickly sprinkle your desired toppings over the chocolate before it begins to set.
Place the coated bananas back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Return to the freezer for 10–15 minutes, or until the chocolate is fully hardened.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week.
