Description
A ‘chocolate’ flavored avocado mousse or healthy carob pudding with no caffeine and added vitamins and minerals. A good reason to eat dessert first.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 Ripe bananas
- 2 Ripe avocados
- 2/3 c Carob powder
- 3 T Maple syrup
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp Stevia (or to taste)
Instructions
- Using a small bowl, peal the banana and break into pieces. Smash well with a fork or potato masher. Add the avocados and do the same. Mix well till banana and avocado are incorporated. For a more smooth mousse texture, purée the mash with a hand blender or small food processor until smooth.

- Add maple syrup and continue to blend.
- Taste test, and add 1/8 teaspoon of stevia for additional sweetness, to taste.
- Transfer the mousse to individual bowls and serve. Store in the fridge until ready to eat, up to five days. Keeps well in freezer for six months.
