Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole ripe bananas
- 200 grams sugar-free dark chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 50 grams unsweetened shredded coconut (optional)
- 50 grams chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
Peel the bananas and cut them into halves. Insert a popsicle stick or skewer into each banana half and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Place the baking sheet with the bananas in the freezer for about 30 minutes to help them firm up before dipping.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugar-free dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
Remove the bananas from the freezer. Dip each banana half into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully covered. Use a spoon to help cover any missed spots.
If desired, roll or sprinkle the chocolate-covered bananas with unsweetened shredded coconut or chopped nuts while the chocolate is still wet.
Return the chocolate-covered bananas to the parchment-lined baking sheet and place them back in the freezer for at least 1 hour to set completely.
Serve directly from the freezer for a refreshing treat. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week.
