Good combination of healthy and tasty ingredients like Sunflower Oil , Corn Flour ,Banana,Carrot and brown sugar. In our country people prepare carrot juice, which is tasty too. But this one’s great. Thanks for this mouth watering recipe and explaining the method.

Just made them, Yum!!!
easy, delicious and most (those that are left anyway) will be our dessert tonight.
I used cupcake paper cups (pattypans) it made 24.
I reduced cooking time by 8 minutes. Worked well.

Is there anyway to make this with less oil? It seems an awful lot and doesn’t seem very healthy….
