When I’m craving a piece of chocolate I will figure out a way to make a healthy version. Last night I couldn’t stop thinking about chocolate. Typically I mix a nut butter with some dates and cacao and coconut oil for a quick fix, but I only had a tiny amount of peanut butter left.
So my creative food prep brain lit up and I thought why not turn bananas into fudge. Sometime I question my ideas thinking they might be a bit bazaar, but I went for it.
Oh boy am I happy about this creation. What’s not to love about chocolate, bananas, and peanut butter?!?
I hope you enjoy these as much as I did!
Recipe:
3 ripe bananas
1/3 cup cacao powder or cocoa just adjust to taste
3 to 4 tbsp peanut butter ( or go nuts and use more I had a very limited amount of peanut butter left)
1/4 to 1/3 cup coconut oil
1/6 tsp vanilla extract ( optional)
Directions:
Add all ingredients to blender and blend to combine
If you don’t have a blender mash banana in a bowl mix everything well add in coconut oil and whisk.
I froze mine overnight.
Enjoy!
