Summer is right around the corner and the warmer weather means those summer road trips are almost here! Don’t have anything planned? No problem, sitting out by the pool is a great time too! Whatever your summer plans might be, you’re going to go bananas for this sweet treat that we’re telling you about today! Whether you’re a parent on snack duty or just a foodie like me, these frozen chocolate-covered banana snacks will hit a refreshing sweet spot! Did I mention they are SO easy to make, so when the family begs for more it will be an easy task! See all you need to know below and be sure to let us know how it goes!

What You’ll Need:

  • 1 banana
  • 1 heaping cup dark chocolate chips
  • 2 Tbsp coconut oil

Instructions

  • Slice the banana and place the slices on a tray. 
  • Put the tray in the freezer until the bananas are frozen solid. About an hour.
  • Place the chocolate chips and the coconut oil in a small microwave-safe bowl or measuring cup. Microwave for 30 seconds and then stir. 
  • Microwave for another 15 seconds and stir again, until all the chocolate is melted and smooth.
  • Put it back in the microwave for another few seconds if necessary. Don’t overheat. Set the chocolate aside to cool.
  • When the bananas are frozen, dip them into the cooled chocolate and coat on all sides. 
  • Let any excess chocolate drip off before setting the slice down on parchment or waxed paper. Put the slices back in the freezer right away.
  • You can store the slices in a zip lock freezer baggie once the chocolate has hardened.
