Equipment

  • 6 Popsicle sticks

Ingredients

  • 3 Bananas
  • 170g (6oz) Dark Chocolate (equivalent to 1 cup of choc chips)
  • 1 tablespoon Coconut Oil

Optional Toppings

  • finely chopped nuts / seeds
  • nut butter
  • shredded coconut
  • sprinkles
  • freeze dried fruit

Instructions

  • Line a baking sheet (that will fit in freezer space) with baking /parchment paper.
  • Peel the bananas, slice in half and insert a popsicle stick into the cut end. Place each banana on the prepared baking sheet and freeze for a minimum of 2 hours.
  • Once the bananas are frozen, melt the chocolate. Add chocolate and coconut oil to a microwavable bowl. Microwave, stirring every 20-30 seconds until fully melted and smooth.
  • Pour the melted chocolate into a tall jar/glass and dip the bananas in the chocolate. Quickly sprinkle with chosen toppings (if using) before the chocolate has time to set.
  • Return to the freezer until the chocolate fully hardens, around 5 minutes. If storing for later, place in a zip lock bag or a freezer friendly airtight container for up to a week.
