These creamy frozen chocolate covered banana bites with sea salt are a quick, easy, and refreshing summer treat combining sweet bananas, rich dark chocolate, and a hint of sea salt.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 23 ripe but firm medium-sized bananas
  • 1 cup (170 g) dark chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate (60-70% cacao recommended)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional)
  • Sea salt flakes (like Maldon), for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Peel the bananas and slice into ½-inch thick rounds. Set aside on a plate.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine dark chocolate chips and coconut oil if using. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth and glossy. Alternatively, melt over a double boiler.
  3. Using tongs or a fork, dip each banana slice into the melted chocolate, coating fully. Let excess chocolate drip off before placing on a lined baking sheet.
  4. Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt flakes on each chocolate-covered banana slice while the chocolate is still wet.
  5. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 2 hours or until the chocolate hardens completely. Avoid stacking before fully frozen.
  6. Transfer the frozen bites into an airtight container and keep frozen. Let sit a minute at room temperature before serving if too hard to bite.

Notes

Use ripe but firm bananas to avoid mushiness. Coconut oil helps chocolate harden with a nice sheen but is optional. Work quickly as chocolate can thicken. Freeze bites in a single layer to prevent sticking. Let frozen bites sit a minute before eating for easier biting and better texture.
