CHOCOLATE & BANANA TARTS

What do you do when all you have is an over ripe banana and a jar of Nutella? Well, you throw in some puff pastry...and there you have an instant dessert...and a plate full of comfort no less! I feel like a total cheat for posting this, because it is so simple, but here goes!


RECIPE

Serves 6

- Ready rolled puff pastry sheet (320g)
- 2 ripe bananas
- 6 liberal tbsp Nutella
- 2 tsp brown sugar
- Confectioner's sugar (for dusting)

1. Preheat oven to 220°C and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

2. Cut pastry into six 14cm by 14cm squares and place on lined tray. 

3. Spread the middle of each square with Nutella, leaving a 2cm border.

4. Cut the banana into thin slices and layer onto the Nutella.

5. Sprinkle with brown sugar and bake in the bottom of the oven for 15-20 minutes. Move to the middle of the oven for the last 5 minutes. Dust with confectioner's sugar and serve whilst warm.

{Eat with caution. This is too simple to make and far too moreish to resist and could eventually lead to a few added pounds around the middle! You've been warned!}
