Chocolate Banana Cups

Chocolate Banana Cups are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert.

With just two simple ingredients, this two ingredient recipe is perfect for anyone looking to indulge in a sweet treat while keeping things light.

The combination of naturally sweet bananas and rich, sugar-free dark chocolate makes for a perfect pairing that is both nutritious and delightful.

The Ingredients

Bananas: Bananas offer natural sweetness, an array of vitamins and minerals, and a creamy texture that provides the perfect base for this recipe without needing additional sugars.

Their potassium content is particularly beneficial for maintaining heart health and muscle function.

Look for ripe bananas, as they will offer the best sweetness and texture.

Sugar-free Dark Chocolate: Complementing the bananas is sugar-free dark chocolate, a great option for those mindful of sugar intake yet craving a deep, satisfying chocolate flavor.

Dark chocolate is known for its health benefits, being rich in antioxidants and potentially aiding in heart health by improving blood flow and lowering blood pressure.

The combination of these two ingredients results in a dessert that is as nutritious as it is indulgent.

How to Make Chocolate Banana Cups

Place the silicone mini muffin pan on a flat, stable surface to prevent any spills or uneven distribution of ingredients.

Peel the banana and slice 12 coins that are about 1/4″ thick. Carefully place one banana slice into each cup of the silicone mini muffin pan.

Make sure each slice sits flat in the cup to create a stable base for the chocolate.

Fill a saucepan with a few inches of water and place it on the stove over medium-low heat. Once the water is hot place the double boiler on top of the pan.

Break apart the chocolate bar and add it to the double boiler. It’s important to stir the chocolate occasionally with a silicone spatula to promote even melting. Avoid using metal utensils, as they can retain heat and cause the chocolate to scorch.

Use a spoon or small ladle to carefully pour the melted chocolate over each banana slice in the silicone mini muffin pan.

Make sure to fully cover the banana slices, letting the chocolate flow over the edges. This ensures that each bite offers a perfect balance of creamy banana and rich chocolate.

Once each banana slice is thoroughly coated with chocolate, place the silicone mini muffin pan in the freezer to set.

After the cups have fully set, they are ready to be enjoyed. Carefully remove the pan from the freezer and gently press the bottom of each silicone cup to release the Chocolate Banana Cups.

Storing Leftovers

This is a great snack or dessert to have on hand, it’s tasty and low in points. The recipe can easily be doubled so you have plenty of leftovers.
