Ingredients
  

2 large ripe bananas

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (or use milk chocolate for extra sweetness)

1 tablespoon coconut oil

A pinch of sea salt (for finishing)

Optional Toppings: crushed nuts, granola, shredded coconut, sprinkles

Instructions
 

Prepare the Bananas: Begin by peeling the bananas and slicing them into thick rounds about 1/2 inch wide. Place these banana slices in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet to ensure they freeze evenly.

    Mix the Yogurt: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with the honey or maple syrup, if desired. Stir the mixture thoroughly until the sweetener is completely integrated into the yogurt.

      Coat the Banana Slices: Using a spoon, dollop or spread a generous layer of the yogurt mixture over each banana slice. Ensure the yogurt layer is even and covers the banana completely.

        Freeze the Banana Slices: Transfer the baking sheet with the yogurt-coated banana slices to the freezer. Let them freeze for about 1 to 2 hours, or until the yogurt is solidly frozen.

          Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil. Heat the mixture in the microwave, using 30-second intervals, stirring in between each interval until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.

            Dip the Yogurt Melts: Once the yogurt-covered banana slices are frozen, take the baking sheet out of the freezer. Dip each slice into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated. Gently shake off any excess chocolate to avoid drips.

              Add Finishing Touches: While the chocolate is still warm, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over each coated banana slice. Additionally, feel free to add any of your chosen toppings such as crushed nuts, granola, shredded coconut, or colorful sprinkles.

                Freeze Again: Place the dipped banana melts back on the parchment-lined baking sheet and return them to the freezer. Allow them to freeze for an additional 15-30 minutes, or until the chocolate coating is completely set.

                  Serve: Indulge in these delightful frozen treats immediately, or store them in an airtight container. These treats can be kept frozen for up to two weeks, making them a perfect snack to have on hand.
