Banana Churros with Chocolate Superfood Sauce Recipe
Thoughts of churros probably stir up memories of carnivals and pre-paleo days where the dangers of fried dough were unknown (don’t worry, we were all there once!).
Now, they’re paleo-approved, with added superfoods.
Churros have undergone a makeover by substituting gluten-filled dough for bananas, undesirable oil for virgin coconut oil, and naughty sweeteners for mineral-rich coconut sugar. And we’ve even added a chocolate bonus in the form of a gooey dipping sauce infused with anti-aging & immune-supporting collagen and protein.
As you can see, this once no-go treat has made a turn … for the better.
Banana Churros with Chocolate Superfood Dipping Sauce
Prep time: 7 minutes
Total time: 20 minutes
Serves: Varies
Ingredients:
- 2 bananas, sliced into roughly 2” thick coins
- 2 Tbsp coconut sugar

Directions:
