I saw some chocolate covered frozen bananas at Trader Joe’s and figured it would be really easy to make a raw version! And I was right. I just used coconut oil, not butter (which I guess would make it creamier, and coconuttier). The coconut oil makes the chocolate harden into a shell around the banana quickly, so...

I saw some chocolate covered frozen bananas at Trader Joe’s and figured it would be really easy to make a raw version! And I was right.

I just used coconut oil, not butter (which I guess would make it creamier, and coconuttier). The coconut oil makes the chocolate harden into a shell around the banana quickly, so you can eat it before its frozen if you’re impatient, or if you just like it better that way!

You can taste the banana better when it’s not frozen solid, so I like them half-frozen.

Another variation I think I’ll try next time is adding some nut butter into the mix and maybe some cinnamon or other spices.

Maybe I could make a frozen nutty banana with coconut oil, almond butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. A banana with a creamy nutty shell!

Roll the coated banana around in some dried coconut, nuts, or raisins.

Mmm, I’m getting excited thinking of the possibilities.

I’m sure there are a million variations you can do on this recipe that will all be delicious.
