About the recipe
These colourful banana lollies will bring a bit of sparkle to Bonfire Night! Try experimenting with different sprinkles to get a variety of colours – you could try grated clementine or lime zest, dried cranberries or crushed pistachios.
You will need 8 wooden skewers to make this recipe.
Ingredients
100g quality dark chocolate (70%)
4 bananas
3 tablespoons desiccated coconut
3 tablespoons freeze-dried raspberries
Method
- Snap the chocolate into a heatproof bowl, and carefully place over a pan of gently simmering water until smooth and melted, stirring occasionally (or melt in the microwave).
- Peel the bananas and cut them in half, then carefully push a skewer into each flat end until you can hold it upright.
- Carefully dip the bananas into the melted chocolate and lay on a sheet of greaseproof paper. Sprinkle over the coconut and raspberries in a pattern of your choice, then set aside until the chocolate has set.
- Delicious eaten by the bonfire or while watching the fireworks. Boom!
