Here’s a simple and indulgent recipe for Banana Fudge — creamy, rich, and packed with real banana flavor. It’s a fun twist on traditional fudge and makes a great no-bake treat!
🍌 Banana Fudge
Ingredients (Makes about 16 squares)
-
1 ripe banana, mashed (about 1/2 cup)
-
2 cups white chocolate chips
-
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
-
1/4 cup unsalted butter
-
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
-
Pinch of salt
-
Optional: 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon or a sprinkle of chopped walnuts for garnish
🔪 Instructions
1. Prepare the Pan
-
Line an 8×8 inch pan with parchment paper or foil. Lightly grease for easy removal.
2. Melt Base Ingredients
-
In a saucepan over low heat, combine white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter.
-
Stir constantly until melted and smooth (don’t overheat — white chocolate can scorch easily).
3. Add Banana & Flavor
-
Stir in the mashed banana, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
-
Mix until fully combined and smooth. The mixture will thicken slightly.
4. Pour & Chill
-
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan.
-
Smooth the top and sprinkle with cinnamon or chopped nuts if desired.
-
Refrigerate for at least 3–4 hours, or until firm.
5. Cut & Serve
-
Once set, lift out of the pan and cut into small squares.
-
Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week (due to the fresh banana).
✅ Tips:
-
For extra banana flavor, add a few drops of banana extract.
-
If you want a chocolate-banana swirl, mix in a few melted dark chocolate chips before pouring into the pan.
-
Great for using up overripe bananas!
