Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 bananas (medium, ripe)
- 1.5 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 0.5 cup sprinkles (optional, for topping)
- 0.5 cup chopped nuts (optional, for topping)
- 8 popsicle sticks
Instructions
Peel the bananas and cut them in half crosswise so that each piece is about 4 inches long.
Insert a popsicle stick into the cut end of each banana half, ensuring it is secure but does not go through the other side.
Place the bananas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Pour the melted chocolate into a tall glass or cup to make dipping easier.
Remove the frozen bananas from the freezer. Working quickly, dip each banana pop into the melted chocolate, using a spoon to help coat it evenly if needed.
Immediately sprinkle the chocolate-coated bananas with your choice of sprinkles or chopped nuts before the chocolate hardens.
Place the coated bananas back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and return to the freezer for 15 minutes, or until the chocolate is fully set.
Serve the frozen banana chocolate chip pops straight from the freezer and enjoy!
