Ingredients

4 ripe bananas 8 ½ ounces dark chocolate, (70% cacao or higher) 1 teaspoon vanilla ¼ cup coconut oil sea salt, to taste 4 tablespoons chopped almonds, or walnuts

Instructions

1. The night before you plan to eat these, chop bananas into 1 inch pieces. Lay each piece flat on a wax paper-lined cookie sheet.

2. Stick a toothpick into each piece and put cookie sheet into freezer overnight.

3. Heat about 1 inch of water in a small pot over low to medium heat. It should be hot, but not boiling.

4. Place the chocolate, vanilla, coconut oil, and salt into a glass bowl and place the bowl in the pot.

5. If the water reaches more than halfway up the outside of the glass bowl, pour some water out.

6. Gently stir the chocolate mixture until it is completely and evenly melted. Turn of the heat.

7. Grasping the toothpick, dip each frozen banana piece into the melted chocolate and place back on the wax paper.

8. Immediately sprinkle chopped nuts over the top.

9. Repeat for all banana pieces. Serve immediately or store in the freezer for up to a couple of days.
