16 Reviews of Banana Crumble

I've never seen a recipe for banana crumble before, (I always make apple crisp), so I was anxious to try this. I was not disappointed at all. It's very delicious and we all enjoyed it. The bananas are not very attractive looking after baking because they get pretty dark, but the taste is still great. I do recommend eating it within an hour or two of baking because the bananas do get a little mushier on sitting. But regardless of that, we loved it and it made a very nice dessert. Also, no bake temperature was specified so I used 375 degrees for 15 minutes in an 8 X 8 pan (because I don't have any ramekins). Thanks!

    Made this for an impromptu dinner with friends last night. All I had were some bananas - this was totally finished. I would add more bananas next time probably 6 for the amount of crumble. It was delicious - thank you for posting.

    This recipe was great...but not perfect. We thought it could use a bit more sugar. Other than that it was perfect thanks!

    Never heard of banana crumble before, glad I spotted this recipe. My ramekins must have been a smaller size than recipe called for, because I only used 3 bananas and had topping left over. The aroma was wonderful! I used rolled oats instead of granola Thank You dojemi-

    I didn't have ramekins so I used an 8x8 pan and I doubled the topping like I do with apple crisp. It was fantastic! My kids gobbled it up! Thanks for something different to make with bananas!

    This was soooo good and so quick to make. I cut about 3-4 bananas (thickly) and put in a shallow casserole dish. I used Heartland brand granola. The topping was perfect. I topped with a dollop of Cool Whip and drizzle of maple syrup and it was WONDERFUL. Even my daughter liked it and she doesn't like bananas. Great cold the next day. Update: I used 2 tbs. butter cut up very fine (mixer) and it baked up fine (trying to save a few calories)! I topped with some Jello vanilla pudding and it was to die for! Roxygirl

    Always have bananas which become more ripe than DH will eat them - but are not ripe enough for me to enjoy. We have been buying from Big Box store at a really LOW price, eating what we wanted - then tossing the really rotten ones away. This was a delightful dinner dessert, where I put about 1 TBSP dark rum (brought from "The Islands" by DD and DSIL), then added crumble on top, prior to baking. prepared 1 banana each, and added vanilla ice cream at serving time — was a VERY nice, fruity dessert ! Thanks, dojemi, for posting.

    This is pleasant change from the regular apple crumble. I like it very much. Would add a few chopped nuts the next time. For Chef #244913's question, you could put dollops of peanut butter over the bananas in the dish. Then sprinkle the crumble on. The oven's heat will melt and distribute the peanut butter. Yum!
