Baked Rum Bananas

Wed, 20 May 2009 15:42:19 -0400

The Spanish carried bananas with them to the New World in the 1500s, planting the root corms in Central America and the Caribbean islands, where they flourished. With its proximity to Cuba, the Florida Keys encountered the fruit long before the mainland did. Bananas weren't formally introduced to Americans until the 1878 Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition, where, wrapped in foil, they were sold for 10 cents each.

Banana Snack Cake With Brown-Butter Frosting

Wed, 27 May 2009 22:39:02 -0400

I always seem to have "over-ripe" bananas that I try to use before they become way too mushy. I found this recipe in Good Housekeeping and tried it. All the other ingredients are staples in my pantry and it's a great way to use up those extra bananas -- my family thinks it is really delicious as well. -- posted by TasteTester

Grandma Rene's Old-Fashioned Banana Pudding

Fri, 26 Jun 2009 02:51:14 -0400

This was the way my mom made banana pudding. You'll find no vanilla pudding mix in this! It's all homemade and with love. I used a saucepan on the stove to cook the custard, but you have to constantly stir it to keep it from scalding on the bottom because it needs to come to a boil (bubble) to thicken. If you're not comfortable doing that, try using a double-boiler. But it must bubble. For extra zip in the custard, add 1/4 tsp. of lemon oil or 1 tablespoon of lemon zest. The meringue is simple and delicious. If you want a mile-high meringue, use 6 eggs whites (any leftovers in the freezer? Take 'em out!) and 1/2 cup sugar with 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar and a pinch of salt. Eggs are easier to separate when they're cold. So do so, and let them come to room temp before using. Bananas are best if they're ripe and sweet. Don't get any that are green. If yours are green, wait for them to ripen (putting them in a brown paper bag will speed the process). Don't worry about having too many bananas....it's great piled high with all the ingredients! Best served warm, but good either way. Zap in microwave if you have kept it in the refrigerator for hot banana pudding! This is one of my favorite comfort foods! -- posted by Citruholic

Chocolate Banana Cake from Canadian Living

Tue, 30 Jun 2009 00:42:20 -0400

The name "Chocolate Banana Cake" does not do this dessert justice. Not even remotely. Banana-chocolate chip cake is layered with white chocolate whipped cream and banana slices, while the entire thing is covered in white chocolate whipped cream and topped with chocolate ganache. Just incredible. Add nuts for extra flavor. The recipe comes from a Canadian Living cookbook and can be found on the Canadian Living website. Worth the time it takes to make, particularly for special occasions. -- posted by KimEBdos

Instant Banana Date Dessert (Vegan & Good for You Too!)

Sun, 12 Jul 2009 09:21:36 -0400

This is so yummy & sweet & a potassium & fiber powerhouse too. I came up with it lastnight & only wish I had some vegan whipped cream to go ontop. Of course whipped cream would be a great addition! Feel free to add some if you wish. It'd work as a great diet food too, if you follow my recipe exactly it has 250 calories (dunno if Zaar will recognise vegan creamer lol so I added it up myself) -- posted by SamiBTX

Chocolate Oatmeal Pancakes (Guilt-Free & Gluten Free)

Tue, 14 Jul 2009 01:21:48 -0400

Don't tell your kids and they'll never know these moist chocolaty pancakes are actually healthy for them! Packing over 7 grams of protein and over 3 grams of fiber each, these pancakes are made without oil or sugar, combining egg whites, oats, cocoa powder, and a combination of bean & brown rice flour to make a nutrient packed breakfast that is high in fiber and protein and low in fat. A well mashed banana is used for sweetener, but unexpectedly you will not taste it. Serve w/a bowl of Cool Whip for dipping or simply pour hot soymilk over them (so they're moist like adding syrup w/o the calories!). Have fun experimenting with the way you like to eat them! -- posted by Emily Elizabeth

Peachy Fresh Fruit Salad With a Flourish of Angelica and Mint!

Tue, 28 Jul 2009 11:00:08 -0400

This was the first thing I was taught to make at secondary school in Domestic Science! We were all taught to make basic lemon syrup for the fruit salad, a great classic and a standard recipe that I have never forgotten! However, here I have deviated a little and have taken advantage of some excellent local peach syrup instead of the homemade lemon syrup I usually make; and I have garnished the salad with mint and angelica from my herb garden. I have suggested certain fruits to use, but the beauty of a fresh fruit salad is that you can always rustle one up with whatever you have locally and to hand. Serve with fresh pouring cream for a real treat! -- posted by French Tart

Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

This recipe is very versatile because it can be made in the form of muffins, bread or CAKE! If you like, you can add a bit less sugar and leave out the chocolate chips and make it more appropriate for breakfast/brunch. Walnut are are great addition, but are by no means necessary. I think these are amazing just as they are. From: Joy of Vegan Baking! Please note: Cook time for MUFFINS is stated below. If baking as a "bread" or cake it should probably bake for 40-45 minutes -- posted by Kozmic Blues

Killer Banana Bars

Mon, 21 Dec 2009 02:17:58 -0500

Absolutely addictive! These bars are moist, light, and fluffy like a quick bread (rather than dense like a brownie). They have a slight sweet/salty thing going on that takes them to the next level. Make a pan and watch them disappear! These are a huge hit at potlucks. You can double this recipe and bake in at 13x9-in. pan. Variation: For outrageously good pumpkin bars, substitute canned pumpkin for the banana and add 1 tsp. fresh grated ginger. Outstanding!

This is an excellent, moist banana bread by itself but the addition of caramelized brown sugar apples make this truly outstanding. You can add nuts or currants.

For longer storage, freeze well wrapped in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil for up to 3 weeks. Defrost (still wrapped) at room temperature.

This is a combination of a couple of recipes I have used in the past. It is a huge hit with our families and is always requested at family gatherings.

Id like to share a very simple banana bread recipe with you. Ive probably made this recipe at least 100 times, which is a totally scary thought! It comes from Sally Sampsons super-useful and sadly out-of-print cookbook, The Bake Sale Cookbook: Quintessential American Baking (Simon & Schuster). The technical title is Paiges Astounding Banana Bread. -- posted by Chef Crybaby.Bitchface
