Method
- Add the ripe banana, cocoa powder, milk, and optional sweetener to a blender. Blend until completely smooth.
- Pour the mixture into a small saucepan. Heat on low heat, stirring constantly, until it comes to a gentle boil and thickens slightly (about 1–2 minutes).
- Remove from heat and pour into a serving bowl.
- Let it cool to room temperature or place in the fridge for a firmer texture.
- Optionally sprinkle with extra cocoa powder before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- Use a very ripe banana with lots of brown spots for maximum natural sweetness and creaminess.
- For a thicker pudding, cook a little longer or add an extra ½ tbsp cocoa powder.
- Works great with plant-based milks – perfect vegan option.
- Add a pinch of salt or a drop of vanilla extract for richer flavor.
- Best served chilled after 30–60 minutes in the fridge.
- Stores well in the fridge (covered) for up to 2 days.
- Optional toppings: chopped nuts, banana slices, chia seeds, or a dollop of yogurt.
