Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole ripe bananas
- 200 grams sugar-free dark chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 30 grams chopped nuts (optional)
- 30 grams unsweetened shredded coconut (optional)
- 20 grams sugar-free sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
Peel the bananas and slice them in half for a total of eight pieces. Insert a popsicle stick or skewer into the cut end of each banana.
Place the bananas on a tray lined with parchment paper, ensuring they are not touching. Freeze for approximately 1 hour or until they are firm.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugar-free dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until completely melted and smooth. Alternatively, melt the chocolate and coconut oil in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water.
Remove the bananas from the freezer. Dip each banana into the melted chocolate, using a spoon to help coat evenly. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off.
While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle the bananas with optional toppings such as chopped nuts, unsweetened shredded coconut, or sugar-free sprinkles.
Place the chocolate-covered bananas back onto the parchment-lined tray. Return to the freezer for an additional 20 minutes or until the chocolate is set.
Once set, the sugar-free chocolate covered bananas are ready to serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a week.
