Recipe | Chocolate sauce for banana splits

Our August issue (out 25 July 2018) includes a recipe for a Banana Split, for which you'll need oodles of chocolate sauce

Vegan chocolate sauce

80ml coconut oil
4 tbsp cacao powder
3 tbsp maple syrup
Pinch of salt
1 vanilla pod (bean), scraped 

Combine all the ingredients and gently heat through in a medium pan for about 5 mins – make sure you don’t overheat as this will separate the sauce. Once well combined, pour into a glass jar and set aside.
