Ingredients
  • ½ small ripe banana
  • peeled
  • mashed until smooth
  • 1 tsp chocolate drops
  • 2 sheets filo pastry
  • 3-4 tsp vegetable oil
Directions
  • Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
  • In a bowl
  • mix together the mashed banana and chocolate drops. Set aside.
  • Lay one square of filo pastry onto a work surface and fold it in half to make a rectangle. Cut away the folded edge using scissors or a sharp knife to create two rectangles.
  • Fold each rectangle in half again to make two squares. Cut off the folded edges to create four squares.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining sheet of filo pastry to create eight filo squares.
  • Grease two of the holes in a muffin tray with vegetable oil using a pastry brush. Push one pastry square into the bottom of each hole
  • allowing the corners to point upwards. Brush the pastry squares with a little more oil.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining pastry squares
  • making sure the corners point up in different places for each layer. There is no need to grease the top layer of pastry.
  • Divide the chocolate and banana mixture equally between the two filo-lined muffin holes.
  • Gently twist the corners of each pastry parcel together to seal. Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes
  • or until the pastry is crisp and golden-brown.
