Chocolate Covered Frozen Bananas Recipe
These Frozen Banana Pops are a brilliantly creative way to make healthier treats the whole family will love! Made with frozen bananas coated in chocolate and nuts, they're a handy treat perfect for birthday parties, movie nights, or a (mostly) healthy dessert!
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 3 bananas ripe but firm
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 Tablespoon coconut oil
- ¼ cup chopped dry roasted peanuts
- ¼ cup rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
- Peel and cut your whole bananas in half, crosswise. Insert a popsicle stick into each of the banana halves and place them in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with waxed paper. Allow the bananas to freeze for 1 hour on the baking sheet.
- When bananas are almost frozen, begin melting chocolate. In a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate in 20-second increments, then add coconut oil and mix until smooth.
- Transfer the chocolate to a tall, skinny glass. Remove bananas from the freezer. Carefully submerge the banana into the chocolate and fully coat it, allowing the excess chocolate to drip back into the glass.
- Working quickly, sprinkle your topping of choice all over the banana while the chocolate is still wet! Place it back on the lined tray to set. Once all the bananas are dipped and garnished, chill them in the freezer for 30 minutes and enjoy!
Notes
Storage
- Freeze: Store your banana popsicles in a freezer-safe container or freezer-safe bag for up to 2–3 months. Ensure there's not much air in the container or bag to prevent freezer burn.
