Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas

1 cup dark chocolate chips (or milk chocolate, if preferred)

1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting)

Sea salt (for sprinkling)

Chopped nuts or shredded coconut (optional, for coating)

Instructions
 

Prep the Bananas: Peel the bananas and slice them into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Arrange the banana slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer.

    Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler, combine the dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil (if using). Microwave in 30-second intervals or heat over low-medium heat until melted and smooth, stirring often to prevent burning.

      Dip the Banana Slices: Using a fork or toothpick, dip each banana slice into the melted chocolate, allowing the excess chocolate to drip off. If you'd like, you can also sprinkle the chocolate-covered bananas with chopped nuts or shredded coconut for added texture and flavor.

        Sprinkle Sea Salt: After dipping, sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt on each banana slice to enhance the sweet chocolate flavor.

          Freeze the Bites: Return the chocolate-dipped banana slices to the parchment-lined baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the freezer and chill for at least 1-2 hours, or until the chocolate has hardened completely.

            Serve and Enjoy: Once frozen, transfer the chocolate banana bites to an airtight container. They can be enjoyed straight from the freezer for a delicious frozen treat, or let them sit for a few minutes to soften slightly before eating!
