BANANA CACAO BITES
Makes 7 bites
INGREDIENTS:
1 medium banana
1 cup cacao powder
½ cup cacao butter or coconut oil
2 teaspoons of almond or cashew butter
½ teaspoon sea salt
DIRECTIONS:
Slice banana into 14 pieces and place on baking sheet w/ parchment paper
Add a dollop of almond or cashew butter to half of the banana slices and stack the other slices on top as to make a sandwich
Melt and cacao butter or oil and cacao powder on low heat and whisk until smooth
Individually dip the banana sandwiches into the mixture so that they are fully coated and place on the baking sheet (using a toothpick can be helpful). If you do have some sort of ice cube tray or silicone baking tray like the one below those work great as well.
5. If you are using the trays pour one tablespoon of the cacao mixture in and then place the banana sandwich and top with two more tablespoons of the cacao mixture.
6. Once all are coated and on the baking sheet, sprinkle with sea salt.
7. Place in freezer for a couple hours or overnight.
8. If you are using the trays - you can sprinkle with sea salt once you pop them out!
**Not sweet enough for you? Feel free to add some local honey or real maple syrup to the cacao mixture! ENJOY!
