Method
- Mash the bananas in a bowl, then mix in the cream, sea salt flakes and sugar. Pour into a pan and heat very gently, stirring constantly, until steaming. Scatter in the dark chocolate, then take off the heat and stir to combine. Transfer to a food processor and whizz until smooth (or use a stick blender). Strain through a sieve into a jug, discarding any strainings, then share among 8 small glasses or pots.
- Cover each with a piece of cling film, leave to cool completely, then chill (see make ahead).
- Meanwhile, toast the hazelnuts in a medium oven, then very finely chop or whizz to fine crumbs in a food processor with the remaining tablespoon of sugar. Keep somewhere cool in an airtight container or bag until needed.
- To serve, scatter some of the sugared hazelnuts over the top of each pot and serve. Put the rest in a bowl for people to add themselves.
