Copycat Trader Joe's Gone Bananas

Servings: 4 -6 snack servings

Ingredients

  • 2 large ripe but firm bananas
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 2 Tbsps unrefined coconut oil

Instructions

  • Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Peel and slice your bananas into 1-inch-thick pieces.
  • Place your banana slices onto your prepared baking sheet and freeze until very firm, about 2 hours.
  • Once bananas are frozen solid, melt your chocolate chips and coconut oil together over a double boiler, stirring constantly until smooth and creamy.
  • You can melt the chocolate chips in the microwave if you prefer.
  • Remove bananas from the freezer.
  • Now using a fork, sharp knife, or tongs, very carefully dip each banana slice into your melted chocolate, until evenly coated.
  • Allow any excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl, then return your chocolate banana slices back onto their sheet pan; the chocolate should set almost immediately, since the banana slices are frozen.
  • Set your chocolate covered bananas back into the freezer for 20 minutes to ensure they are completely frozen solid.
  • Once they are completely set, serve immediately.
  • You can store any remaining chocolate covered frozen banana slices in an air-tight container or zip lock bag in your freezer for up to 2 weeks.
