- 1 ½ Tablespoons coconut oil
- 3 Tablespoons chopped almonds peanuts, sprinkles and/or shredded coconut
- 8 bamboo skewers or popsicle sticks
Instructions
- Prepare a small baking sheet by lining with parchment paper.
- Peel each banana. Discard peels and cut each banana in half.
- Insert a bamboo skewer or popsicle stick into each banana half.
- Lay bananas on baking sheet and freeze for 1 hour or until bananas are frozen.
- Melt the chocolate and coconut oil together. You can use a double-boiler or microwave for this. For the microwave, add chocolate and coconut oil into a microwave safe bowl. Heat for 1 minute, stir and continue to heat in 30 second increments until chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Dip each frozen banana half into the melted chocolate, coating as much of the banana as you’d like. Sprinkle with toppings of choice to decorate. Do this quickly because chocolate hardens fast.
- Place chocolate covered banana back on parchment lined baking sheet and continue this process until all the bananas are coated. Enjoy immediately or store in the freezer for later.
