Ingredients
- Avocado: Adds that irresistibly creamy texture we love in a mousse. Make sure to use a ripe avocado.
- Banana: Makes it extra smooth and naturally sweet. The riper, the better!
- Dark Chocolate: The chocolatey heart of this dessert. No mousse without it!
- Maple Syrup: For a touch of extra sweetness. If your avocado and banana are super ripe, you might not need it at all.
- Dairy-Free Milk: Helps blend everything beautifully while making the mousse light and airy. I love soy milk (for extra protein) or oat milk.
- Lime Juice: Adds a little tang to balance the sweetness and round out the flavors.

How To Make
- Melt the chocolate gently over a water bath or in the microwave.
- Add all the ingredients into your food processor or use an immersion blender, and blend until silky smooth. Want it sweeter? Just add a little more maple syrup to taste.
- Serve right away for a soft, pudding-like texture or chill in the fridge for up to one day if you prefer it cold and a bit firmer.
Topping Ideas
Dress it up with:
- Fresh berries
- Coconut whipped cream
- Shaved dark chocolate
- Crushed nuts
- A pinch of flaky sea salt
How To Store
This mousse keeps well in the fridge for up to 2 days. Just cover it tightly to prevent the avocado from oxidizing. I don’t recommend freezing it.
