BANANA SPLIT MINI BUNDT CAKES

Servings: makes 8
Print

Banana Cakes

3 bananas
1/4 cup almond butter
1/4 cup Medjool pitted dates
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup rolled oats
2 teaspoons baking powder

Chocolate Sauce

1/4 cup date syrup
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup raw cashews
3 tablespoons cacao or cocoa powder
splash of vanilla
dash salt (optional)

Fruit Toppings

sliced fresh strawberries
banana slices

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Into the bowl of a large food processor, add bananas, almond butter, dates, vanilla, oats, and baking powder. Pulse or process until the mixture is well combined.

Remove bowl and blade from the base. Divide batter evenly, filling 8 wells of either a silicone mini bundt cake pan or a silicone muffin pan.

Bake for 20 minutes, or until tops are golden and firm to the touch. Remove from oven and place on cooling rack.

While the cakes are cooling, prepare the chocolate sauce. In a high-speed blender (like a Vitamix), add date syrup, water, cashews, cacao or cocoa powder, vanilla, and salt. Blend together until super creamy.

Once the cakes are cool, carefully remove from the pan. Place on a serving platter, flipping which side faces up. Drizzle with desired amount of chocolate sauce, top with freshly sliced strawberries and bananas, and serve immediately.
