Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas

1 cup almond flour (or any flour of your choice)

1/2 cup rolled oats

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/4 cup cocoa powder

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Sprinkles or crushed nuts for decoration (optional)

4 wooden popsicle sticks

Instructions
 

Prepare the Banana Mixture: In a spacious mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas thoroughly with a fork until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.

    Combine Ingredients: Add the almond flour, rolled oats, honey (or maple syrup), cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt to the mashed bananas. Mix everything together until well combined, forming a thick mixture resembling cookie dough.

      Shape the Cookie Pops: With your hands, take small portions of the dough (approximately 2 tablespoons each) and shape them into oval-shaped cookies. Insert a wooden popsicle stick into the center of each cookie, ensuring it is securely placed so it stands upright.

        Freeze the Pops: Arrange the cookie pops on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making sure to space them out to prevent sticking. Freeze the pops for at least 1 hour, or until they become firm enough to handle.

          Melt the Chocolate: While the cookie pops are setting in the freezer, place the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat them in 30-second intervals in the microwave, stirring well in between, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.

            Dip the Cookie Pops: Once the cookie pops are frozen solid, take each one and dip it into the melted chocolate, ensuring a thorough coating. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off gently.

              Add Decorations: If you'd like to add a touch of flair, sprinkle your choice of colorful sprinkles or crushed nuts onto the chocolate-coated pops immediately after dipping, before the chocolate has a chance to set.

                Final Freeze: Return the decorated cookie pops to the parchment-lined baking sheet and place them back in the freezer for an additional 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden completely.

                  Serve and Enjoy: After the chocolate is nicely set, your Frozen Chocolate Banana Cookie Pops are ready to be enjoyed! These treats make for a perfect dessert or a refreshing snack on a warm day.

                      - Presentation Tips: Serve your cookie pops in a fun holder or in a cup filled with ice to keep them upright. You can also dust them with additional cocoa powder or drizzle extra melted chocolate for an elegant touch!
