Salted chocolate dipped bananas– Sprinkle the chocolate with coarse sea salt.
Half dip the bananas– For less chocolate and more banana flavor.
Make it party friendly or mess-free– Add a stick or toothpick before freezing.
Tips And Techniques For Chocolate Frozen Bananas
Melted chocolate should not be too warm– Or else the bananas will start breaking down during dipping.
Don’t use very ripe bananas- They are too soft and it’s hard to dip them and get them coated properly.
Dip slices one at a time– This prevents them from becoming too coated which keeps them from falling apart.
What kind of chocolate should I use? I use semisweet or dark chocolate chips. You can choose whatever you prefer.
How do I melt the chocolate chips? You can use a double boiler to melt the chips, or microwave for 20-30 seconds at a time making sure to stir in between.
Storage
Freezer– These must be kept in the freezer. Store in a sealed container for up to 1 month. They cannot be stored in the fridge or at room temperature.
