Peel the bananas and slice them into coins. Place them in a sealed container and freeze for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.
In a small saucepan over low heat, add coconut milk, cacao powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, coconut oil, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir constantly until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the sauce from heat and stir in the dairy-free chocolate chips until fully melted and incorporated. Set aside to cool slightly.
For the ice cream, add the frozen banana slices to a food processor and blend until they reach a creamy, ice cream-like consistency. You may need to scrape down the sides a few times.
To assemble the sundaes, scoop the banana ice cream into bowls.
Drizzle the warm chocolate fudge sauce generously over the ice cream.
Sprinkle the chopped nuts over the top for added crunch and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your dairy-free chocolate fudge sundae!
