Notes

  • A ripe banana adds a bit more sweetness and is easier to get smooth.
  • If you prefer vanilla powder to vanilla extract, you only need 1/2 teaspoon. I’ve been using this brand
  • If you prefer super smooth bananas, use an immersion blender. This is optional.
  • Keep in the fridge in an airtight container for about a week.
  • This is not true fudge. It must remain cold otherwise it will melt. It will taste the same, but it just loses it shape as it warms up.
  • To make this vegan, just substitute the honey for maple syrup.
  • For this recipe, use a regular 9x5x3 loaf pan. You can also use a somewhat smaller pan (8½" x 4½" x 2½") and it would be fine as well. You may just need additional time to chill.
