Coffee Banana Mousse (GF)




I wanted to modify this recipe to come up with a version made with bananas instead of tofu.  This is the result !!!  I'm not sure which I like better since I made the tofu version awhile ago !!!!

I found a down-side to making all this mousse -  I eat too much !!!  I can't stop eating it once I start !!!! 

I actually make the mousse and then leave it in the freezer for about a week before I take it out to eat it.  I think it has a better flavor - this gives it time for all the flavors to "blend together".

This was made with 1/2 cup of peanut butter:






Ingredients:
3 medium really ripe bananas, sliced
1/8 tsp salt
1/4 to 1/2 cup natural peanut butter (depending on desired thickness) 
2 tsp Coffee Extract  (I use OliveNation)
2 Tbsp instant coffee
2 oz vegan chocolate bar, broke into pieces (optional)

Directions:
Put everything in a blender and blend until smooth and creamy.  

Pour into a glass jar with a lid or container with a lid.  Put in freezer to firm.  Store in fridge.



My favorite food processor is the  KitchenAid  7-Cup Food Processor

For blenders, I use both the  Vitamix Blender and Ninja Master Prep Professional Blender

I will give them a long, full life, and they will see how I can save.

Peanut Butter Coffee Chocolate Chip Banana Mousse




I always LOVE coffee flavored things !!  This was thick and DELICIOUS !!!  I could not stop eating it !!!!  Mousse makes SUCH a good snack or dessert !!!  I  LOVE keeping some flavor of mousse in the fridge to eat when I have a craving for something sweet.  

I actually make the mousse and then leave it in the freezer for about a week before I take it out to eat it.  I think it has a better flavor - this gives it time for all the flavors to "blend together".






Ingredients:
1/3 cup natural peanut butter
1 tsp Coffee Extract  (I use OliveNation)
1 Tbsp instant coffee
1/8 tsp salt
2 really ripe bananas, sliced
2 oz vegan chocolate bar, broke into pieces

Directions:

Put everything in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth and creamy.  

Pour into a jar or container. Put in freezer to firm.  Store in fridge.

They will call to me, and I will answer them.  I will be with them in trouble; I will rescue them and honor them.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Mint Muffins - Wheat Flour




These are REALLY REALLY good...they have a rich chocolate flavor, pretty strong mint flavor and are moist !!

Comments from my co-workers:  incredible, delicious, nice and moist, love the mint flavor.   They were a hit !!!  One of my taste testers said this was her favorite muffin so far !!!

This was a thinner batter.


Ingredients:
1 and 1/4 cups whole wheat flour (I used Bob's Red Mill Whole Wheat Flour )
1/4 cup Sucanat   (or brown sugar) (I use Barry Farm for Sucanat)
1/3 cup Hershey's Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda

1/8 tsp salt
1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips
 --------
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 cup almond milk
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp Peppermint Extract (I use Nielsen-Massey)
2 large very ripe bananas, mashed  (if your bananas are smaller, you will probably need to increase the liquid by 2-4 Tbsp)


Directions:
Mix applesauce, milk, peanut butter, vanilla, peppermint, and mashed bananas in one bowl. 

Mix the dry ingredients in another bowl.    

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir just until the dry ingredients are moistened.  


Pour into muffin pan and bake at 350 degrees for about 20-25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.  


I like using the silicone bakeware for my muffins.  The muffins  come out so easily and I don't need to grease the pan.  My favorites are:   Casabella Silicone Standard Muffin PanCasabella Silicone Large Muffin Pan, Casabella Jumbo Muffin Cups.



The OXO Large Scoop  
is GREAT for scooping out batter into the muffin pan.  It is MUCH neater than when I used a spoon to scoop the batter into the pan - I no longer get batter all over the muffin pan !!!
