Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Using a teaspoon, carefully hollow out the top of each banana, creating a shallow trench about 3-4mm deep along the length of the banana. Be careful not to cut too deep.
  4. Fill the hollowed-out portion of each banana with 2 tablespoons of vegan chocolate spread.
  5. Cut the sheet of puff pastry into strips about 1.5cm (about 1/2 inch) wide.
  6. Carefully wrap the pastry strips around each banana, slightly overlapping the edges to ensure the chocolate spread is enclosed. Leave the ends of the bananas slightly exposed.
  7. Place the wrapped bananas on the prepared baking sheet, seam side down.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
  10. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vegan ice cream or a dusting of powdered sugar.
  11. Be cautious when eating, as the filling will be very hot.
