(To caramelise the pecans:50g pecans, 1 1/2 tbsp maple syrup)
Method:
Preheat the oven to 190c.
Begin by caramelising the pecans, toss them in maple syrup and then pop in the oven for 10 minutes keeping an eye they don,t burn. Once ready, pop in the fridge to cool.
In a large mixing bowl, add bananas and mash them. Then add sugar and coconut oil, give a good mix. Add in the flax egg and mix some more and then add in the chocolate and pecans.
