Ingredients
  

4 ripe bananas

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 tablespoon coconut oil

1/2 cup crushed nuts (almonds, walnuts, or peanuts)

1/2 cup shredded coconut (unsweetened)

1/4 cup mini marshmallows (optional)

6 wooden popsicle sticks

Instructions
 

Prepare the Bananas: Peel the bananas and cut them in half crosswise. Insert a wooden popsicle stick into the cut end of each banana half, making sure it goes in deep enough to hold the banana steady.

    Freeze the Bananas: Arrange the banana pops on a parchment-lined baking sheet and place them in the freezer for about 1 hour or until they are firm.

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

        Prepare Coating: In a separate bowl, combine the crushed nuts, shredded coconut, and mini marshmallows (if using). Mix well to combine.

          Coat the Banana Pops: Remove the banana pops from the freezer. Dip each banana pop into the melted chocolate, rolling it to ensure an even coating. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off.

            Add the Toppings: Immediately roll or sprinkle the coated banana pops in the nut and coconut mixture until fully covered. Make sure to do this step quickly while the chocolate is still warm, so the toppings stick well.

              Freeze Again: Place the coated banana pops back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for an additional 2 hours or until the chocolate is fully set.

                Serve and Enjoy: Once frozen, remove the pops from the parchment sheet, serve them immediately, or store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a week.
