Eleanor Ozich of Petite Kitchen shares her recipe for this silky, naturally sweetened mousse.
This whipped banana mousse tastes sinfully good, and has subtle hints of caramel from the almond butter. It is naturally sweetened with ripe bananas and a hint of honey, although you could also use pure maple or brown rice syrup if you prefer.
This luscious yet light and fluffy mousseis very simple to prepare, and will easily make enough to share with family and friends.
I have also popped the same mixture in to icecream moulds, which works as an equally delicious frozen treat.
