Chocolate Covered Bananas with Walnuts, Coconut, and Cranberries


I am sorry for my blogging absence. I've been having "technical difficulties" with photo uploading. My card reader/writer broke in half and I haven't been able to get any photos onto my computer for editing and blogging. I don't like to post too many blog posts without original photo content, so I just chose to abstain from blogging until I could get another card reader. But no worries, all is well and I'm back at it. 

I'm excited to share this recipe with you all! I am a snacker- constantly nibbling and eating whatever we have around our place. I wanted to make something to snack on that wouldn't make me feel sick or fill me up to overflowing whilst I continually snack, and I have just the recipe. 


Chocolate Covered Bananas with Walnuts, Coconut, and Cranberries

5 bananas
2 bars of dark chocolate (about 5 oz each)
Small handful of dried cranberries and dried coconut
1/4 cup chopped walnuts

Melt chocolate; meanwhile, peel bananas. Place the bananas on a baking sheet or a plate. Spoon the chocolate over the bananas until fully covered. Sprinkle nuts and coconut over bananas. Add the cranberries. Place in fridge and wait until chocolate is set. You can also freeze them if you prefer!

  2. This looks and sounds delicious, but HOW do you eat it!? I can't imagine eating it without creating a tremendous mess everywhere.

  3. Oddly enough, it wasn't really messy. The chocolate didn't crumble into a million pieces when I bit into them, and since I sprinkled the nuts/coconuts when the chocolate was still melted, it all stayed in tact pretty well. However, I would eat with a plate if you make them :)
