Chocolate Covered Banana Recipe
 
 
Delicious and healthy chocolate covered bananas are just within your reach! These are a HUGE summer favorite here. <br>Your yield will vary depending on the size of your nanners, and how thick you like the chocolate coating…so make more than you’ll think you need, and save the non-coated nanners for the teething baby.

Ingredients
  • 8+ whole bananas
  • 16+ popsicle sticks
Chocolate Dip:
  • 1 c. extra virgin coconut oil, softened or melted
  • ½ c. cocoa powder
  • ½ c. honey (I used raw orange blossom)
Optional
  • Toppings of your choice: toasted coconut, chopped nuts, mini chocolate chips, cacoa nibs (these are better chopped and blended into the topping)
Instructions
  1. Peel Bananas and break in half.
  2. Push a stick into each half, and freeze on a wax paper covered baking sheet.
  3. When bananas are frozen solid, assemble the chocolate dip.
  4. Choose a tall, narrow dipping container, like a large glass.
  5. Measure in coconut oil, honey, and cocoa powder.
  6. Blend well. We used a butter knife to stir.
  7. Put toppings in a shallow dish or plate, so you’re ready to roll.
  8. Dip frozen banana into chocolate sauce, and roll in topping or sprinkle on topping as desired.
  9. Place back onto cold tray.
  10. Chocolate will harden quickly on the frozen bananas!
  11. Repeat until all the bananas are chocolate dipped.
  12. When the coating is hard, put bananas into an airtight container and store in the freezer.
Enjoy!
