Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

2 tablespoons coconut oil

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 cup chopped nuts (e.g., almonds or walnuts) - optional

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon - optional

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract - optional

Instructions
 

Prepare the Bananas:

    Begin by peeling the ripe bananas. Slice them into rounds approximately 1/2 inch thick. Carefully arrange the banana slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

      Melt the Chocolate:

        In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat the mixture in the microwave in intervals of 30 seconds, stirring thoroughly between each interval. Continue this process until the chocolate is completely smooth and fully melted.

          Enhance Flavors (Optional):

            For an extra boost of flavor, if desired, mix in the sea salt, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract into the melted chocolate until evenly combined.

              Dip the Bananas:

                Using a fork or a toothpick, carefully dip each banana slice into the melted chocolate. Ensure each slice is thoroughly coated. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the coated slices back onto the prepared baking sheet.

                  Add Nuts and Freeze:

                    If you’re using nuts, sprinkle the chopped nuts generously over the chocolate-coated banana slices while the chocolate is still wet. Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let it chill for about 1 hour, or until the chocolate hardens completely.

                      Store or Serve:

                        After the chocolate has set, transfer the frozen chocolate banana bites to an airtight container or a freezer-safe bag. Enjoy these delightful bites straight from the freezer as a refreshing snack, or impress your guests by serving them as a sweet treat at gatherings!
