Gluten Free Chocolate Covered Bananas
4 ripe, but not too ripe, organic fair trade bananas
2oz. semi sweet chocolate chips
1 cup of Gluten Free Plain Jane Granola
4 Popsicle sticks or wooden skewers

Peel the bananas and insert a Popsicle stick 1/3 of the way into the banana. Be careful not to split the banana when inserting the stick. Lay the bananas on a baking sheet and freeze overnight.
Microwave the chocolate for 30 seconds in a microwave safe bowl, stir the chocolate and microwave again until it is smooth and creamy (about 30 more seconds). Do not microwave for more than 30 seconds at a time because you do not want to burn the chocolate.
Spoon the chocolate over the frozen banana spreading it evenly with the back of the spoon. Immediately roll the banana in the granola and return to the freezer for at least an hour.
Enjoy!

Chef's Note & Story
I have made this special treat for years. Now that we make Gluten Free Plain Jane, Granola even those with a gluten intolerance can enjoy it! I love making these this time of the year when the weather is starting to get warmer… it reminds me of summer :)
Sweet and very Delicious
Who would have thought it's a banana. Kids will love these!
