Prepare Bananas: Insert wooden sticks into the halved bananas. Place them on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for at least 1 hour.

Melt Chocolate: In a microwave or double boiler, melt chocolate chips with coconut oil until smooth.

Dip Bananas: Remove bananas from the freezer. Dip each into melted chocolate, letting excess drip off.

Serve: Enjoy straight from the freezer as a refreshing treat.
