Banana and chocolate crumble

The crumble is a classic English dessert, normally made with apples &/or berries. This banana and chocolate crumble is an interesting variation. It's not only delicious, but very simple to make too! You can substitute half of the flour with rolled oats, if you'd prefer a more healthy and crunchy version.
