Ingredients:
2 ripe bananas
1 cup of dark chocolate chips (or milk chocolate chips for a sweeter version)
1 tablespoon of coconut oil (or butter for extra richness)
A pinch of sea salt (optional, for enhanced flavor)
Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts, almonds) or shredded coconut (optional, for topping)
Sprinkles or a drizzle of honey (optional, for extra sweetness)
Instructions:
Prepare the Bananas: Peel the bananas and slice them into 1-inch thick rounds. Lay them out on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet for easy assembly.
Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil (or butter). Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
Dip the Banana Slices: Using a fork or skewer, dip each banana slice into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Gently tap the fork against the bowl to remove excess chocolate.
Add Toppings: If desired, sprinkle chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or a pinch of sea salt over the chocolate-coated banana pieces for added texture and flavor.
Chill: Place the coated banana slices back onto the parchment paper. Transfer them to the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.
Serve and Enjoy: Once the chocolate has hardened, your quick chocolate banana treats are ready to serve! Enjoy them chilled or at room temperature.
