I love sharing dinners and desserts with you, but I also like sharing silly, fun recipes like Bird’s Nest Cupcakes, Bacon, Egg and Toast Cups, and these frozen banana pops! I know if these were spread out at a summer party, they would be the first thing I grab! Er, especially since I’m problematic with sprinkles.

What? They make everything taste like a rainbow.

Swirled in melted dark chocolate that hardens in the fridge, these little frozen banana bites are quick, easy and ready to be ravaged with all kinds of toppings! For mine, I chose coconut flakes, chopped nuts and sprinkles, but coat yours with whatever you like! Try ‘em with your favorite crunchy cereal, mini chocolate chips or candy coated sunflower seeds. You can even use yogurt as the base instead of chocolate!

All you need to do is grab a handful of bananas or other dense fruit, chop them up bite-sized and freeze them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Once they’re firm, send your chocolate for a spin in the microwave and stir until it’s silky smooth. If your chocolate isn’t getting the right consistency, add in a little butter or shortening.

Bathe your banana bites in the warm chocolate, shake off the excess, and coat those little cuties ‘til your heart’s content in any kind of tasty toppings! They’re like a party in your mouth, I tell ya. And bonus: They’re not going to send your kid into a bouncing-off-the-ceiling sugar coma. Unless the kid eats ‘em all. Yikes.

Frozen Chocolate Banana Pops

Yield: Makes about 18 pops

Ingredients:

Toothpicks

3 firm-ripe bananas, cut into 2 inch pieces

6 ounces (1 cup) semisweet chocolate chips

1 Tablespoon sprinkles, coconut, nuts, or any desired topping

Directions:

Insert a toothpick into each banana piece. Arrange bananas, toothpick side up, on a parchment lined baking sheet. Freeze until firm, about 2 hours.

In a medium microwave-safe bowl, heat chocolate chips in 10 second increments, stirring between each until melted and smooth. Working quickly, dip each banana piece in chocolate, shake off excess, and cover with desired topping. Chocolate should set quickly, but if necessary, freeze or refrigerate pops to harden coating before serving.

Store in the refrigerator up to 1 day.

Enjoy!

    These are just too cute! And I always have bananas lying around the house (I only eat green ones but they turn yellow so quickly) so this is absolutely perfect for me! :)

    This is bananas! Wow, so creative. I love it!

  9. Joanne says

    May 24, 2012 at 11:15 am

    I LOVE this idea! Especially since you can smother them in sprinkles. You’re right…everything tastes better with sprinkles.

  10. Jenn says

    May 24, 2012 at 12:31 pm

    I haven’t had a frozen chocolate covered banana since I was a kid! This is such a great idea… the perfect summer treat!

  15. Sydney @ The Crepes of Wrath says

    May 24, 2012 at 2:42 pm

    I saw a few people eating these at a fair last weekend – I should really make some myself. It’s probably better than snacking on just straight up chocolate chips out of my baking cupboard :)

  16. Laura says

    May 24, 2012 at 6:13 pm

    Thank goodness I have bananas at home! I don’t have cute sprinkles at home (this happens when you are not a baker!) but I have coconut flakes. Going to try it this evening with the kids. We have dessert after dinner~~~!

  33. Georgia | The Comfort of Cooking says

    May 24, 2012 at 6:37 pm

    Sprinkles make me HAPPY! And I’m a firm believer that anyhting on a stick just tastes better! Cake pops, corndogs, and bananas! These would be the first thing I’d grab at a picnic table bbq too, Georgia! :)

    Happy Memorial weekend! :)

  35. Tina Bk says

    May 24, 2012 at 6:40 pm

    I remember chocolate covered bananas used to be all around at festivals, now you rarely see them. However, now that I see this I am inspired to make these at home! I cannot think of anytime that would be a bad time to serve these-always a welcome treat yum!

  36. Amy @ Elephant Eats says

    May 24, 2012 at 6:42 pm

    These are so adorable! Makes me wish I had kids to make them for…but I guess making them for myself will have to do :)

  37. Ashley @ Kitchen Meets Girl says

    May 24, 2012 at 6:54 pm

    We love frozen bananas at our house, and what a wonderful presentation you’ve made with the appetizer sized bites and sprinkles–LOVE! Your photos are always stunning, by the way.

    I’m just drooling over your pictures! Amazing. And the recipe looks spectacular! “You could even use a yogurt base instead of chocolate”? Now you stop that nonsense, right now! Chocolate is always the optimum choice ;)

  54. Hayley says

    May 25, 2012 at 2:41 am

    Eeek! SO cute, Georgia! I’m loving the banana pop studded with rainbow nonpareils, my FAVORITE sprinkle of all time. The coconut one looks awesome, too!! So easy and fresh for summertime.

    this looks delicious, i saw this on Ellie Krieger, it’s such a healthy and yummy dessert… maybe i’ll make this tonight for dessert, it totally curbs my sweet tooth, better than eating cupcakes a couple times a week. :-0

  66. Baking Serendipity says

    May 26, 2012 at 3:43 am

  67. Cristina says

    May 26, 2012 at 6:29 pm

    OMG Georgia!! These banana pops are too freaking cute. :) What a cute idea and luv the presentation. The possibilities of a coating outside the chocolate is endless!

    Have a safe and happy holiday weekend!

  68. Val says

  78. Erin @ Texanerin Baking says

    June 2, 2012 at 5:57 pm

    I love this idea! They’re so cute and I’m sure people would be super impressed by them. If I didn’t have this terrible banana allergy I imagine I’d be off to the kitchen now to make these. I know you said you can use other fruit, but I can’t think of any that would work as well as banana. Oh well. I love this post. :)

  79. Heidi Hawyes says

    June 6, 2012 at 8:16 am

    I love these – i have never made them myself thou, but i am really keen to try!How long do you freeze them for, a couple hours?

  80. Georgia | The Comfort of Cooking says

    June 6, 2012 at 11:56 am

    Before you dip them, freeze the banana pieces for about 2 hours. Once they’re dipped, they only need about 30 minutes refrigerated to harden. Freezing for too long will make them difficult to eat.

  81. Anonymous says

    June 26, 2012 at 4:22 pm

    Can you make these a few days ahead and freeze them untill you need them?

  82. Georgia | The Comfort of Cooking says

    June 26, 2012 at 4:24 pm

    You can make them 1 day ahead, freeze, then thaw in the refrigerator shortly before serving.

  83. Michael @ BlueberryChuckle says

    June 26, 2012 at 11:37 pm

    And yet another fun thing to do with the bananas that I can’t seem to eat fast enough!

  84. Andrew says
