Ingredients
  

4 ripe bananas

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1 cup dark chocolate chips

1 tablespoon coconut oil

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of sea salt

Optional toppings: chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or crushed graham crackers

Instructions
 

Prep the Bananas: Peel the ripe bananas and cut them in half. Insert a popsicle stick into the base of each banana half for easy handling.

    Make the Peanut Butter Mixture: In a bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix until smooth and creamy.

      Coat the Bananas: Dip each banana half into the peanut butter mixture, ensuring they are generously coated. Shake off any excess peanut butter and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

        Freeze the Bananas: Place the coated banana halves in the freezer for about 1 hour, allowing them to firm up.

          Prepare the Chocolate Coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.

            Coat the Frozen Banana Pops: Once the peanut butter-coated bananas are firm, dip each one into the melted chocolate, ensuring an even coating. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off.

              Add Toppings (Optional): While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle your choice of toppings such as chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or crushed graham crackers for added crunch and flavor.

                Final Freeze: Return the chocolate-coated bananas to the parchment-lined baking sheet and place them back in the freezer for another 30 minutes to set the chocolate.

                  Serve and Enjoy: Once the chocolate has hardened, your delicious Choco-Banana Bliss Pops are ready to be enjoyed! Serve them straight from the freezer.
