Ingredients
- 4 pieces bananas
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 0.5 cup crushed nuts (e.g., peanuts, almonds, or pecans)
- 0.5 cup crushed graham crackers
- 0.25 cup rainbow sprinkles
- 8 pieces popsicle sticks
- 1 sheet parchment paper
Directions
Step 1
Peel the bananas and cut each one in half crosswise.
Step 2
Insert a popsicle stick into the cut end of each banana half. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 1 hour or until firm.
Step 3
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between intervals, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
Step 4
Prepare topping stations by placing the crushed nuts, crushed graham crackers, and rainbow sprinkles in separate shallow bowls.
Step 5
Remove the frozen bananas from the freezer. Working one at a time, dip a banana half into the melted chocolate, using a spoon to ensure it's fully coated.
Step 6
Roll the chocolate-coated banana in one of the prepared toppings or sprinkle the toppings over the chocolate while it is still wet. Repeat with each banana piece, alternating toppings as desired.
Step 7
Place the coated bananas back on the parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Once all are finished, return the baking sheet to the freezer for at least 30 minutes or until the chocolate is fully set.
Step 8
Serve the Crunchy Banana Pops straight from the freezer and enjoy!
