Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Lightly oil the inside of the cake pop maker and then plug it in. Note that it doesn't require a long time to pre-heat.

  2. Mix the mashed bananas, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract in a bowl.

  3. Sift together flour, baking soda, and sugar. Add to the banana mixture and mix until smooth.

  4. Pour some batter into the cake pop maker holes (fill them about 1mm from the top). With a thick batter, it is easier to use a spoon than a piping bag. Bake them for around 3-4 minutes, until golden brown (you can test with a toothpick). Repeat with the remaining batter. Once cool, you can remove any excess cake that leaked around the edges of the balls.

  5. Place a metal bowl over a pot of simmering water and add the chocolate (make sure it's low heat). Melt it completely until smooth and shiny.

  6. Insert the end of a cake pop stick in the chocolate and then into the cake pop. Repeat for all of the cake pops. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to seal the stick to the cake pop.
