Description

Chocolate Banana Sushi with Pistachios is a delightful and easy-to-make dessert featuring a fresh organic banana coated with a smooth semi-sweet chocolate topping and sprinkled with crunchy pistachios. Perfect for a quick treat, this recipe requires no baking and combines creamy, crunchy, and sweet flavors in every bite.

Ingredients

Scale

Banana

  • 1 organic banana (firm)

Chocolate Topping

  • 1/4 cup Enjoy Life semi-sweet mini chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon organic coconut oil

Garnish

  • 2 tablespoons organic pistachios (chopped or ground)

Instructions

  1. Prepare serving dish: Line a serving dish or dinner plate with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Prepare garnish: Chop the pistachios finely or grind them into a powder using a coffee grinder, then set aside.
  3. Prepare banana: Peel the firm banana and place it whole on the prepared serving dish.
  4. Melt chocolate topping: In a small saucepan, combine the semi-sweet mini chocolate chips and organic coconut oil. Melt on the lowest heat while stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth and no burning occurs.
  5. Assemble: Slowly pour the melted chocolate over the banana, ensuring it is fully covered on the top and both sides.
  6. Add pistachios: Sprinkle the chopped or ground pistachios evenly over the chocolate-covered banana.
  7. Serve option 1: Slice and serve immediately for a soft chocolate coating experience.
  8. Serve option 2: Place the dish in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to harden the chocolate, then remove, slice, and serve for a firmer texture.
  9. Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight BPA-free container in the freezer or refrigerator to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • Use a firm banana for best results to prevent mushiness.
  • Enjoy Life chocolate chips are allergy-friendly and free from common allergens.
  • The coconut oil helps smooth the chocolate and adds a subtle flavor.
  • Freezing the banana with chocolate makes slicing easier and adds a nice texture contrast.
  • For a finer garnish texture, grind pistachios in a coffee grinder.
