This cake is cooked entirely in a skillet because apparently that’s how I like to dessert. The main reason is because I didn’t want to make a cake to serve a party, I wanted it to be small… like 4 serves. And the easiest way to do that (if you don’t have a tiny cake tin) is to make it in a skillet. So here we are, another skillet dessert. You’re welcome.
Double Chocolate And Banana Cobbler
This cobbler is sort of like a skillet self saucing pudding. It’s grain free and low in sugar thanks to being mostly sweetened with banana. It’s also rich chocolatey goodness and I’m all about that. Keep reading if you are too!
CARAMELISED BANANA MUFFINS WITH A CINNAMON CRUMBLE
PB & J FILLED CHOCOLATE MUFFINS
You probably won’t believe me but these muffins have no added sugar. They don’t use dried fruit, only whole fruit. They’re also gluten free, light and fluffy. And yep, they’re filled with peanut butter and raspberry. Other than the peanut butter there’s also no added fat. Oh and they taste REALLY good.
BANANA WHOOPIE PIES
Whoopie pies. They sound ridiculous. And they’re so good. It’s basically two light sponge halves with a crispy exterior sandwiched together with creamy goodness. Delicious right? These little guys taste like banana cake and have less added sugar and oil than your typical treat so although they are a treat they’re a slightly lighter one. But they don’t taste like it and that’s the trick.
THE BEST BANANA BREAKFAST PARFAIT
This tastes like a banana cream pie, but better, because it has coconut and different textures and the creamy banana bit tastes and feels (in your mouth obv, don’t go running your fingers through it you weirdo) like mousse. And yes, it’s just all kinds of crazy good. I want to eat this for breakfast every day. For ever. Until I’ve od’d on banana and I’m like, ew get that away from me (won’t happen, no way). Can you tell I’m a little bit excited about this one?
BANANA CHOCOLATE MARBLED SMOOTHIE
This smoothie is both tasty and pretty. And full of the good stuff of course! You can use your preferred milk but almond or oat would both be delicious choices. The marbled effect is easy to do and makes for a pretty finish. We eat with our eyes first and I find the nice my food looks the more mindful I am when eating it.
BANANA AND SALTED CHOC CHIP MUFFINS
If you’re after a quick and easy gluten free, low fat, low sugar snack then these are for you. They are so so good. Especially straight from the oven. Is there anything better than breaking open a muffin straight from the oven filled with oozing melting chocolate? I think not.
KALE, KIWI AND BANANA SMOOTHIE
I think everyone might have their own green smoothie recipe by now… and I’m sure you love your go to but I wanted to share mine. It doesn’t taste grassy or like kale at all but it’s full of it. I also love that vibrant green colour it goes – you just feel like your drinking health haha. And you are, this one has tons of vitamins and minerals, essential fats and fibre. Most importantly this tastes delicious.
CHIA AND OAT PORRIDGE WITH KIWI, BANANA AND PEPITAS
This is one of those recipes where the whole thing is almost in the title. But it’s very good. Really creamy and tasty with loads of nutrients. It’s also exactly what I need to eat at the moment as work has started again and I all of a sudden need to eat breakfast way earlier and thus stay full for longer. This does the trick.
