Description
Chocolate Dipped Banana Bites with Almonds are a delightful treat that combines the sweetness of ripe bananas with the rich flavor of chocolate and crunchy almonds.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe bananas
- 200 grams dark chocolate (about 7 oz)
- 1/2 cup crushed almonds
- A pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- Peel the bananas and slice them into bite-sized pieces, about 1/2 inch thick. Place the slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, break the dark chocolate into small pieces and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until fully melted and smooth.
- Dip each banana slice into the melted chocolate using a fork or toothpick, allowing excess chocolate to drip off before placing it back on the baking sheet.
- While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle crushed almonds over the top of each chocolate-dipped banana slice. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes to set.
Notes
- Use milk chocolate or white chocolate for a sweeter taste.
- Swap almonds for walnuts or pecans for a different crunch.
- For a vegan option, ensure the chocolate is dairy-free.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- Freeze in a single layer until solid, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag for up to three months.
