Ingredients

Directions

  • Begin by peeling the banana and cutting it into chunks.
  • Combine the banana with the rest of the ingredients in a blender, achieving a smooth consistency.
  • Transfer this mixture into a cup for immediate enjoyment or store it in the refrigerator for later.

Notes

  • Tip: Pop it in the freezer for about 30 minutes for a fun twist. The coconut oil will solidify, and you can easily make chocolate balls or mold it into a chocolate bar.
  • Bonus tip: Use this "baby chocolate" as a delicious pancake filling.

The Nutritional Breakdown: Why It’s a Win for Health

Carob flour is naturally sweet, contains no caffeine or other psychoactive substances, and has almost no fat. It is an ideal cocoa substitute and sugar replacer. Carob flour is also a good source of fiber, calcium, and other vitamins and minerals.

Dates, another key ingredient, serve as natural sweeteners and are excellent for digestive health, acting as prebiotics – fibers that are digested by the healthy bacteria populating your gut.

Coconut oil offers healthy fats and imparts a subtle coconut flavor, contributing to the creamy texture of the spread.

Sesame tahini is rich in protein, essential minerals and enhances the nutritional profile of the chocolate spread, making it a wholesome treat for kids.
