HEALTHY CHOCOLATE & BANANA QUESADILLA

Steps:

• Spread the almond butter over half of the tortilla. Top the almond butter with sliced bananas and fold the tortilla in half. Spray each side with a quick shot of non-stick pan spray.
• In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the quesadilla on each side for 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown. Slice in half and enjoy immediately.

DESSERT QUESADILLA

Steps:

• Lay 1 tortilla half on a clean work surface with the rounded side closest to you. Brush the edges of the tortilla with egg. Place 1 tablespoon of chocolate hazelnut spread in the center of the tortilla and place a piece of fruit or marshmallow on top. Fold one side of the tortilla half way over the filling so that the corner is in the 6-o'clock position, press to seal. Fold the other side over the filling so that the two edges overlap slightly and the corner is also in the 6-o'clock position, press to seal. The quesadilla will look like a triangle-shaped hand pie. Repeat with the remaining tortilla halves and fillings.
• Melt half the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook half of the quesadillas until deep golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Wipe the skillet clean and repeat with remaining butter and quesadillas. Dust with confectioners' sugar before serving.

PEANUT BUTTER BANANA QUESADILLA

Steps:

• Spread half the peanut butter onto one side of 1 flour tortilla; top with sliced banana. Spread the remaining peanut butter on one side of the other flour tortilla; place tortilla, peanut butter-side down, on top of banana slices.
• Spray cooking spray into a skillet and place skillet over medium heat. Place quesadilla into the heated skillet; cook until lightly browned, about 3 minutes per side. Cut quesadillas in half to serve.

CHOCOLATE BANANA MOUSSE

Steps:

• Whip cream with electric beaters.
• Mash the bananas with a fork.
• Place chocolate in a jug and microwave for 15 to 20 seconds at a time, until melted and smooth.
• Stir frequently while it's melting.
• Mix cream and mashed bananas together.
• Add melted chocolate and fold together lightly for a marbled effect.
• Serve in glass dishes.

CHOCOLATE BAKED BANANAS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 (or a BBQ). Make a slit through the skin of the bananas along one side - making sure you don't cut all the way through to the other side. Poke in the chocolate buttons along the cut. Put each banana onto a sheet of foil and crimp the edges together to seal into a parcel. Transfer to a baking sheet and cook for 25 mins until the bananas have turned black (or pop straight into the BBQ embers for 15 mins).
• Serve with a scoop of ice cream and any melted chocolate that has escaped!

BANANA QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth.
• Add the sugar and bananas, continue to beat until smooth.
• Spread 1/4 cup of the filling over half of each tortilla.
• Fold the other half over the filling and press slightly.
• Place on a large plate and cover with plastic wrap.
• Refrigerate until the filling sets, about 30 minutes.
• In a large saute pan, over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter.
• Pan-fry the tortillas in batches, 3 at a time, until golden on each side, about 2 minutes per side.
• Repeat the above process with the remaining butter and filled tortillas.
• To serve, slice each filled tortilla into thirds.
• Arrange the slices in the center of each serving plate.
• Spoon a 1/4 cup of the warm caramel sauce over each plate.
• Peel the bananas and slice 1/4-inch thick.
• Garnish each plate with the sliced bananas and whipped cream, if desired.
