Notes
While making these chocolate covered bananas is super easy, you might want to take note of these tips and tricks too.
If you don’t want to use your microwave, you can also choose to melt the chocolate in a double boiler.
I let the chocolate harden at room temperature, but you can also choose to freeze banana slices if you want to speed up the process.
Remember to lay out the frozen bananas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or wax paper before you transfer it to a freezer safe container and freeze it.
I used regular chocolate for this recipe, but you can also choose to use dark chocolate too.
Make sure you add some coconut oil when you melt the chocolate. The melted chocolate and coconut oil help create the perfect chocolate coating for these frozen bananas.
