Ingredients
Scale
Banana Slices:
- 2 medium bananas, sliced
Chocolate Coating:
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
- Prepare Banana Slices: Lay the banana slices out on a cookie sheet lined with parchment or wax paper. Put in the freezer to cool and harden for about an hour.
- Prepare Chocolate Coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Allow to cool slightly.
- Dip Banana Slices: Dip the frozen banana slices in the chocolate, coating on all sides. Use a fork to lift them out of the chocolate and allow the excess to drip off.
- Freeze: Place the dipped slices back on the parchment paper and return to the freezer.
- Serve: Serve the banana bites frozen, or soften in the refrigerator for a few minutes before serving. Avoid letting them defrost completely to maintain the desired texture.
