• ---.
• An optional recipe: Instead of the chocolate chips, use 1 1/2 tsp of cinnamon to make Cinnamon Banana Nut Bread.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Combine the first 5 ingredients in bowl.
• Cut in the butter until the size of peas.
• Add the yogurt or sour cream, egg yolk, bananas and chocolate chips.
• Combine into ball. Flour a surface and knead gently until it comes together.
• Grease a cookie sheet. Place ball in centre of sheet and pat down to form a disk, about 2 1/2 inches high (approx).
• Cut dough in half and then in half the other way (now you have 4 pieces. Now repeat again. So now you have 8 triangles.
• Pull trianges out from each other so they are not touching too much. This will give you lots of nice crust.
• Bake for about 20 minutes. Time depends on how thick you made the scones. To test for doneness -- check the centres where they touch. If firm, they should be done.
• For Chocolate Glaze:.
• When scones are done, put some mini choco chips on top of the scones. Leave for 5 minutes, then spread over top.
• OR.
• For Chocolate Cream Cheese:.
• Heat chocolate and cream until chocolate is melted.
• Cool to room temperature.
• Stir into whipped cream cheese.
• Serve along side scones. YUMMY!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a cookie sheet.
• Place bananas in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until mashed. Add brown sugar, yogurt, egg, and vanilla, beating until smooth. Add cinnamon, baking powder, and salt, beating to combine. Add flour, 1 cup at a time, beating just until combined after each addition. Do not overmix.
• Grate chilled butter into batter using a cheese grater. Beat to combine. Fold in walnuts using a rubber spatula. Drop batter by generous 1/4 cupfuls onto the prepared cookie sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges and tops of scones are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center of a scone comes out with only crumbs, 17 to 20 minutes.
• When scones have a few minutes left in the oven, combine maple syrup and butter for glaze in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook until butter melts completely; do not boil. Remove from heat. Add just enough confectioners' sugar, whisking in a small amount at a time, to reach desired consistency for glaze.
• Drizzle glaze over scones using a spoon or whisk.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl whisk together the almond milk, coconut yogurt, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla and salt. Stir in the chia seeds. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or until thickened to the consistency of pudding. Serve topped with the chocolate almonds and raspberries.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat until foaming. While the butter melts, slice the banana in half across, then in half lengthwise to create 4 long pieces. Once the butter is melted and foaming, swirl the skillet and place the banana pieces cut-side down in the butter.
• Sauté the bananas, swirling the skillet occasionally, until nicely caramelized on the bottom and the butter smells rich and toasted and is deep golden-brown (see Cook's Note), 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer the bananas and browned butter to a small bowl and add the cinnamon. Use a fork to mash the banana.
• Whisk the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda together in a medium bowl. Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar to the bowl and use the whisk to break up and incorporate the sugars into the flour. Add the egg, vanilla extract and the banana mixture and use a wooden spoon to stir until the ingredients are fully incorporated. Add the chocolate chips and then the walnuts if using and stir until just combined.
• Use a rubber spatula to scrape all the dough into the center of the bowl. Press plastic wrap directly on top of the dough and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours. (The flavors will intensify as the dough chills.)
• Meanwhile, evenly position 2 racks in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Grease 2 rimmed baking sheets thoroughly with more butter.
• Use a large ice cream scoop to scoop 6 mounds of dough (or have each one be 3 tablespoons) onto each prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between each scoop. Bake the cookies, turning the baking sheets halfway through, until the edges are golden brown and the centers are very puffy and slightly domed, 12 to 14 minutes. (The centers will settle as they cool.) Cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Store the cookies at room temperature in a tightly sealed container for up to 5 days.
