1/4 cup organic cacao powder
2 tbsp organic dark vegan chocolate chips
3 large very ripe bananas & 1/2 banana for topping
8 pitted Medjool dates
1.5 cup unsweetened original organic soy milk or any other plant milk
1/4 cup organic unsweetened apple sauce
1/4 tsp sea salt
1 tsp baking powder
1.5 tsp vanilla extract
Topping: 2 tbsp PB & ME powder (defatted peanut butter powder) mixed in water per your consistency for topping (optional)
Directions
- Pre-heat oven to 350 °F. Mash your bananas, add vanilla extract, apple sauce to this mixture and set aside. In a high speed blender, blend your plant milk with dates and pour it in the mashed banana mixture
- Combine all your dry ingredients together along with 1 tbsp of chocolate chips. Mix dry with wet and pour it on a lined baking pan. Sprinkle remaining chocolate chips on top and add 1/2 sliced banana.
- Bake at 350 °F for 45-50 minutes. Let it cool. Serve it by itself or with your favorite fruit & PB sauce on top.
I was looking at this recipe and the blueberry recipe. Would I better better off not making these while I’m trying to lose weight? I thought possibly as a breakfast option for something different
Yes, you can totally make these during your weight loss phase, Just add fresh fruits on top for extra bulk as fruit is low in calories or side of veggies.
