Ingredients
  

  • 2 Ripe Bananas Large
  • 1/4 cup Dark Chocolate 70% at least
  • 1 tsp Coconut Oil

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Bananas: Peel and slice the bananas into half-inch thick rounds.
  • Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted.
  • Dip Banana Slices: Dip each banana slice into the melted chocolate, coating half or the whole slice, and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Freeze: Place the baking sheet in the freezer for about 1 hour or until the chocolate is firm.
  • Serve: Once set, serve immediately. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer.

Notes

  • Choose a high-quality dark chocolate with minimal added sugars for a healthier option.
  • Ensure the banana slices are not too thin to prevent them from breaking when dipped in chocolate.
  • This recipe is intended for toddlers over one year old. Always supervise young children while eating.
  • You may add some peanut butter to the mix (we love it)
  • Sprinkle some coconut flakes if you want!
