Chef's Note
The secret to this dish is using bananas with plenty of brown spots; they are naturally much sweeter and have a softer texture that mashes into a perfect silkiness without any added sugar.

Ingredients
2 large bananas
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp honey
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp whole milk
Instructions
- 1
Peel 2 large bananas and place them into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
- 2
Using a sturdy fork, press down on the bananas to break them apart, then continue mashing until they reach a smooth, pudding-like consistency with minimal lumps.
- 3
Add 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 tsp honey, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, and 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon to the bowl.
- 4
Pour in 1 tbsp whole milk to help emulsify the mixture and provide a creamier mouthfeel.
- 5
Stir the mixture vigorously with the fork for about 1-2 minutes, ensuring the cocoa powder is fully hydrated and incorporated so no dry streaks remain.
- 6
Divide the mash into two small bowls and serve immediately, or refrigerate for 10 minutes if a chilled dessert is preferred.
