How to Make banana bites recipe :

Step 1

Peel the bananas and slice them into small, even pieces about 1 inch thick. Try to keep the pieces the same size so they freeze evenly and look neat on the plate and in a microwave safe bowl, combine chocolate and coconut oil. Heat in short intervals, stirring between each one, until the chocolate becomes smooth and shiny. This step makes dipping easier and gives the banana bites a perfect coating.

Step 2

Use a fork or toothpick to dip each banana slice into the melted chocolate. Let the extra chocolate drip off, then place the coated banana piece on a tray lined with parchment paper. If you’re using yogurt instead of chocolate, dip the bananas into yogurt and place them on a separate tray.

Step 3

While the coating is still wet, sprinkle nuts, coconut, or cookie crumbs on top. You can mix different toppings to make colorful and exciting banana bites. Kids love choosing what goes on each piece.

Step 4

Place the tray in the freezer and let the banana bites chill for at least 1–2 hours. Once they’re fully frozen, they will be firm, cold, and ready to enjoy like mini frozen treats finaly take out a few banana bites at a time and enjoy them before they melt. Keep the rest in the freezer so they stay fresh.
