Step-by-Step Instructions
- Slice the Bananas
Peel and slice bananas into ½-inch (1.25 cm) rounds. Place half the slices on a parchment-lined tray. - Make Banana Sandwiches
Spread a little peanut butter on each slice, then top with another banana slice to form a sandwich. - Freeze
Freeze the sandwiches for 30 minutes so they hold together for dipping. - Melt the Chocolate
Combine dark chocolate chips and 1 tsp coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. - Dip in Chocolate
Using a fork, dip each banana sandwich in melted chocolate. Return to the tray and sprinkle with flaky salt if desired. - Freeze Again
Freeze for 30 minutes to 1 hour, until the chocolate hardens completely.
Storage Tips
- Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months.
- Enjoy straight from the freezer for the perfect ice cream-like texture.
Expert Tips
- Don’t skip the first freeze—this prevents the bananas from sliding in the chocolate.
- For a sweeter option, drizzle extra melted chocolate or add a sprinkle of crushed nuts.
- These are a great pre- or post-workout snack thanks to the combo of carbs, protein, and healthy fats.
