Turn an ordinary banana into a fun and healthy snack with these Banana Chocolate Pops. Easy to make and great for picky eaters!
Got a picky eater who turns their nose up at fruit snacks? Yep, me too! As much as I try to encourage my kids to enjoy the simplicity of whole or chopped fruit, sometimes I just have to give in and get a little more creative in how I serve it.
And there’s no easier way of jazzing up fruit than by adding a little chocolate! I used 70% cocoa chocolate to try to keep the sugar content down but any type of chocolate will work.

I made considerably more mess than you did in your video when I made these but they were tasty nonetheless and my little girl was thrilled with them so worth the mess!

Frozen banana treats are the best healthy ‘invention’ ever! I’ve made a similar video but I sandwiched peanut butter between two banana slices then dipped in melted chocolate. So good! x
Ciara Attwell says
I’ve done that before too Nadia but made a complete mess of them! I bet yours is a lot tidier, I will go check it out!

We love making these, although we usually add some cashew butter to ours too 🙂

Yum! I very much approve of that. Unfortunately my kids aren’t nut butter fans though 🙁

Thanks Jemma! I used cake pop sticks but you could use normal ice lolly sticks too!
