Stir well and let the mixture rest for about 15 minutes. This process of resting helps the flax meal mixture develop a gelatinous consistency similar to eggs.To make the batter.Place the butter in a saucepan and place it over a low heat until it has melted.Add the sugar to the butter giving it a stir and and letting it dissolve completely. At this stage, turn off the heat, add the chocolate to the butter and sugar and give it a good stir until it has melted too.Mash the bananas with a fork.
