Ingredients
  

4 ripe bananas

1 cup dark chocolate chips (or vegan chocolate)

2 tablespoons coconut oil

1 teaspoon sea salt (flaky)

1/2 cup crushed nuts (such as almonds, walnuts, or pecans)

1/2 cup shredded unsweetened coconut (optional)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Bananas: Peel the bananas and slice them into thick coins, approximately 1 inch in thickness. Lay the banana slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer.

    Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until completely melted and smooth. If desired, stir in the vanilla extract for added flavor.

      Coat the Banana Slices: Dip each banana slice into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated. Use a fork or toothpick to lift it out, letting any excess chocolate drip off before placing it back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.

        Add Toppings: While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over each banana bite. For added texture, sprinkle crushed nuts and shredded coconut on top of the chocolate-covered bananas.

          Freeze: Once all banana slices are coated and topped, place the baking sheet in the freezer. Freeze for at least 1-2 hours or until the chocolate is solid.

            Enjoy or Store: After they’re frozen, you can enjoy them right away or transfer the bites to an airtight container or a ziplock bag for storage. They can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months.

              Serving Suggestion: Serve these delightful banana bites as a refreshing snack, a party treat, or a guilt-free dessert. You can also pair them with a scoop of your favorite ice cream for an extra indulgent dessert experience!
