Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for a smoother chocolate texture)

1/4 cup chopped nuts (such as walnuts or almonds, optional)

Sea salt, for a finishing sprinkle

Instructions
 

Prepare the Bananas: Begin by peeling the ripe bananas. Slice them into 1-inch thick rounds. Next, arrange these banana slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

    Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips with coconut oil if you wish for a silkier consistency. Microwave the mixture in 20-second intervals, stirring thoroughly between each round, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth in texture.

      Dip the Bananas: Take a fork or a toothpick, and carefully dip each banana slice into the melted chocolate. Ensure each piece is fully coated, then gently tap it to remove any excess chocolate before placing it back onto the prepared baking sheet.

        Add Toppings: While the chocolate is still warm and wet, sprinkle the chopped nuts and a delicate pinch of sea salt on top of each coated banana slice. This will elevate the flavor and add a delightful crunch.

          Freeze: Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer, allowing the chocolate-covered banana bites to freeze for at least 1-2 hours, or until the chocolate coating is fully firm.

            Serve and Enjoy: Once the bites are frozen and the chocolate has hardened, carefully remove the chocolate banana delights from the baking sheet. Store them in an airtight container in the freezer. For a refreshing treat, enjoy them directly from the freezer whenever you desire!

              Prep Time: 10 minutes | Total Time: 2 hours | Servings: About 12-15 bites

                - Presentation Tips: For an elegant touch, consider arranging the chocolate banana bites on a decorative platter, and garnish with a sprinkle of additional chopped nuts or desiccated coconut around the edges for an appealing display.
