Ingredients
- 2 pieces ripe bananas
- 150 grams dark chocolate
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 30 grams crushed nuts (optional)
- 1 pinch sea salt (optional)
- 10 pieces toothpicks or skewers
- 1 sheet parchment paper
Directions
Step 1
Peel the bananas and slice them into bite-sized chunks, approximately 1 inch thick.
Step 2
Insert a toothpick or skewer into each banana chunk and place them on a flat surface lined with parchment paper. Chill in the freezer for 10 minutes to firm up.
Step 3
In a microwave-safe bowl, break the dark chocolate into small pieces and add the heavy cream. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Step 4
Remove the banana chunks from the freezer. Dip each banana piece into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is evenly coated. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the coated banana back on the parchment paper.
Step 5
Sprinkle the chocolate-coated banana bites with crushed nuts and a tiny pinch of sea salt, if desired, while the chocolate is still wet.
Step 6
Return the bananas to the freezer for another 10 minutes, or until the chocolate has fully set.
Step 7
Serve immediately for a chilled treat or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week.
