Ingredients
Instructions
-
Peel the bananas and cut them into halves. Insert a popsicle stick into each banana half and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze for about 30 minutes.

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in the 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, coating entirely. Allow excess chocolate to drip off before placing back on the baking sheet.
-
Optionally, sprinkle your favorite toppings such as chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or sprinkles over the chocolate-coated bananas.
-
Return the tray to the freezer and let the chocolate set for at least 1 hour or until firm.
-
Once the chocolate has hardened, serve the Chocolate Bananas as a dessert or snack.
