Ingredients
2 medium ripe bananas
6 ounces dark chocolate
1 1/2 teaspoons canola oil
Optional toppings: flaky salt, sprinkles, nuts, shredded coconut
Instructions
- Prepare Bananas: Slice the bananas into rounds and set aside.
- Melt Chocolate: In a double boiler, melt the dark chocolate and canola oil together until smooth and well combined.
- Coat Bananas: Dip each banana slice into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated.
- Freeze: Place the chocolate-covered banana slices on a parchment-lined sheet pan. Sprinkle optional toppings like flaky salt, sprinkles, nuts, or shredded coconut over the bananas if desired.
- Freeze Again: Freeze the coated bananas for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolate is firm.
Notes
Make sure the banana slices are dry before dipping them in chocolate to ensure the chocolate adheres well.
For an extra twist, try using different types of chocolate or adding mix-ins like peanut butter to the banana slices before coating them.
