Make simple, portion-controlled chocolate covered banana bites that require no baking. These frozen snacks are quick to prepare and use minimal ingredients.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe but firm bananas
  • 10 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother dipping)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped nuts or sprinkles (optional topping)

Instructions

  1. Peel the bananas and slice them into rounds about 1/2 inch thick.
  2. Place the banana slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  3. Freeze the banana slices for at least 2 hours, or until completely solid. This prevents them from turning mushy when dipped.
  4. Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using) in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until smooth. Alternatively, melt using a double boiler.
  5. Remove the frozen banana slices from the freezer. Work quickly to prevent thawing.
  6. Dip each frozen banana slice into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. You can use a fork or dipping tool.
  7. Place the dipped bites back onto the parchment-lined sheet.
  8. If using toppings, sprinkle nuts or sprinkles onto the chocolate immediately before it sets.
  9. Return the chocolate covered banana bites to the freezer for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate shell to harden completely.
  10. Store the finished bites in an airtight container in the freezer.

Notes

  • To prevent bananas from browning before dipping, you can briefly dip the fresh slices in a mixture of 1 cup water and 1 tablespoon lemon juice, then pat them dry before freezing.
  • For a healthier option, use dark chocolate (70% cacao or higher).
  • If the chocolate thickens while you are dipping, microwave it for 10-15 seconds to re-liquefy it.
