Go bananas with this extravaganza of banana and chocolate recipes. If ever you need a banana chocolate flavoured bake, breakfast, drink or pudding, this is the place to come.
Banana and chocolate is a fabulous combination. If you haven’t tried it yet, you’re missing out. A simple bowl of sliced bananas with some melted chocolate poured over the top is pretty good. However, jazz that up with a few other ingredients and you have yourself something rather special.
Breakfast Banana and Chocolate Recipes
Breakfast seems like a very good place to start. Bananas are a classic breakfast ingredient, but chocolate less so. Nevertheless, there’s nothing quite like starting the day with a banana chocolate concoction of some kind.

Banana and Chocolate Puddings
On high days and holidays, my mother used to make us banana splits for a special treat dessert. Despite being the Queen of Puddings, however, I don’t think I ever had any other type of banana pudding. Let alone banana and chocolate pudding. I can’t really say I missed out, but there are quite a few I’d like to try.
Actually, I may have already tried them, shhhh!

Nadia's Healthy Kitchen says
Mmm so many amazing chocolate recipes 😀 I’ve cut out sugar from my diet so I’m not allowed to have chocolate anymore! So I’m having to make lots of sugar free cocoa treats to satisfy my cravings. Would love to try some (or all!) of these recipes 🙂
Choclette says
Oh goodness, that is really tough Nadia. When you say sugar, do you mean all sugar, including fruit?
Cathy @ Planet Veggie says
Did someone say banoffee pie? I love banoffee pie! They all look fab though 🙂
Choclette says
Haha, I know what you mean Cathy. Banoffee pie can be irristable.
