Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Soften the Dates

    Begin by pitting the dates and soaking them in warm water for about 10 minutes to soften. Drain the water before using.

  2. 2

    Blend the Base

    In a blender, combine the soaked dates, oat milk, banana, almond butter, and cocoa powder. Blend until smooth and creamy.

  3. 3

    Add Texture

    Once the base is blended, add the chia seeds and cocoa nibs to the mixture and pulse a few times to combine. This will add texture to your Chocolate Banana mix.

  4. 4

    Chill (Optional)

    If desired, pour the mixture into a bowl or glass and place it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to chill and thicken.
