Choco-Banana Mousse – Mousse Choco-Banane

April 1, 2016 By katebunting 4 Comments

IMG_2661

Dessert doesn’t have to be unhealthy! The proof isn’t in the pudding… But in the mousse! If you try this at home and serve it to guess, I suggest you ask them to guess what the ingredients are. They simply won’t believe you when you tell them it’s made with avocadoes as you can’t taste it at all. So, eat without the guilt!

For 4 people:

Ingredients:

  • 2 ripe avocadoes, peeled, pitted and sliced
  • 2 ripe bananas, peeled and sliced (I tend to mash them with a fork a little bit)
  • 1/4 to 1/3 cup cocoa powder (start with ¼ cup and adjust to your taste)
  • 1 tbs maple syrup
  • 1 tsp fresh lime juice
  • 1 tsp maca powder (optional but recommended)

Preparation:

  1. Put everything in a food blender and blend until you get a smooth mixture.
  2. Refrigerate for 30 minutes before eating, if possible.

______________________________

Qui dit dessert ne veut pas nécessairement dire mauvais pour la santé. La preuve est dans cette mousse! Si vous décidez de l’essayer à la maison et la servez à des invités, je vous suggère de leur demander de deviner quels sont les ingrédients. Ils ne vous croiront pas lorsque vous leur direz que c’est fait à partir d’avocats puisque le goût est complètement masqué. Vous pouvez donc manger sans culpabilité!

Pour 4 personnes :

Ingrédients:

  • 2 avocats mûrs, pelés, dénoyautés et tranchés
  • 2 bananes mûres, pelées et tranchées (je les écrase aussi un peu avec une fourchette)
  • 1/4 à 1/3 tasse cacao (commencer avec 1/4 et ajuster selon les goûts)
  • 1 tbs sirop d’érable
  • 1 tsp jus de lime frais
  • 1 tsp poudre de maca (optionel, mais recommandé)

Préparation:

  1. Mettre tous les ingrédients dans votre mélangeur. Mélanger jusqu’à ce que tout soit lisse.
  2. Réfrigérer 30 minutes avant de servir, si possible.

    Ohhh chocolate mousse!!! I have tried making something like this similar before, but just with avocado and although I love avocado (and chocolate obviously!), I wasn’t a huge fan. I think the banana would be a lovely addition and I would like your version much more. Only one way to find out 😉

      I wasn’t a very big fan with only the cocoa and avocado either… The banana really makes a big difference, as does the little bit of lime juice. I now LOVE it. 🙂

I really love everything about granola... But I ve I really love everything about granola... But I very rarely eat them with just "milk". 🤷🏼‍♀️ I love them with kefir, dairy free yogourt, coco whip, in a smoothie bowl and... With Chocolate! 🙊 These granola clusters are the easiest thing to make and the perfect snack. You can find the recipe on the blog. 🌟
