warm banana chocolate milk
Today was a very long Saturday indeed. School work for my MBA capstone project and house cleaning – pah! Then I got to thinking about all the things in my cupboard that I should be using… mainly chocolate, and I had made some almond milk last night for bananas foster so thought a warm drink would help me wind down. And it did! Except I’m back on my laptop writing this – the curse of blogging while you’re inspired ; )
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups fresh almond milk
- 2-3 tsp cacao powder
- 1 ripe banana
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch sea salt
- Stevia to taste if it’s not sweet enough… I don’t like things too sweet.
Instructions
- Blend everything in high speed blender until smooth and warm (or blend and warm in saucepan on low heat until desired temp.)
I suppose I do love busy – feeling like I accomplished something and am really enjoying rest time. Happy weekend!

PS. I also discovered that banana slices topped with cacao nibs makes a yummy snack as I devoured the garnish!

I do something similar with dates, but I’ll have to try this!
Sounds amazing! I do this with a frozen banana as a smoothie, but this much more appropriate for the season!
What cacao powder brand or type do you use. Great recipe! Thanks!
Pleased you like it! I use Navitas cacao powder, nibs, and berries as I can easily get them from Whole Foods. When I am organized, I also get stuff from my friend Jon-Michael @ Love Street Living Foods; he also stocks cacao butter, the best raw vegan chocolate spreads ever and a bunch of other hard-to-find goodies.
Sounds nice, will definitely give it a go :)
