I wonder how sweet they would be without the coconut sugar? Would the bananas and protein powder (with sweetener in it) be enough to make them still taste like a treat? I don’t mind if they’re not super sweet as I’ve cut most sugar out of my diet already. The recipe looks really good and looking forward to trying it.
Hi Clare, it’s definitely worth a go! If you have a really ripe bananas they can be enough to make it sweet (and depending on your protein powder, this can add sweetness too). Otherwise you always sub the coconut sugar for some dates :) xx
