Ingredients

Scale

2 ripe but firm bananas
1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1/4 cup crushed roasted peanuts (unsalted or lightly salted)
Toothpicks or skewers (optional)

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Slice bananas into 1-inch thick rounds and place them on a parchment-lined tray. Freeze for 1 hour.
In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil together using a microwave in 20-second intervals or over a double boiler. Stir until smooth.
Using a fork or toothpick, dip each frozen banana piece into the melted chocolate, coating it fully.
Place dipped bananas back on the parchment-lined tray. Immediately sprinkle with crushed peanuts before the chocolate sets.
Freeze for another 15–20 minutes, or until chocolate is firm.
Serve chilled or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a week.

Notes

Use firm bananas to prevent them from becoming mushy when dipping.
Try topping with shredded coconut, sea salt, or mini chocolate chips for variety.
Dark chocolate can be substituted with milk or white chocolate as preferred.
Allow to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving for a softer bite.
