BAKED BANANA WITH CINNAMON & HONEY (LOW FAT / HEALTHY)

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 200c (or get your BBQ nice and ready if you're BBQing).
• Either slice the banana up into bite-sized pieces or cut it in half lengthways if you're looking for a smarter presentation or are having an ice cream banana split.
• Place the banana on an over-sized square of tin foil and sprinkle with cinnamon (to taste).
• Drizzle 2tsp of honey evenly over the banana and gather up the corners of the foil to create a little banana parcel.
• Place the parcel in the oven (or on the barbie) and bake for approximately 15mins.
• NB. Baking time depends on how you prefer your bananas - the more you bake, the more soft and gooey they get and the more the honey caramelises onto them. Personally I don't like mine too over-baked as I prefer the banana to still be a bit hard and the honey to be liquid.

BAKED BANANAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a baking dish with cooking spray.
• Arrange banana halves in the prepared baking dish. Drizzle maple syrup over bananas and top with cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. Cover dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, 10 to 15 minutes.

BANANA LIME CAKE

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 350F/180C degrees.
• Apply a light coating of cooking spray to the sides of an eight inch round baking pan and place a cut parchment sheet on the bottom.
• Sift together the flour, salt, and baking powder together into a large bowl. Mix in the lime zest and brown sugar. Form a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
• Mash the banana mixing with the lime juice to reduce browning. Pour the banana, lightly beaten egg, and yogurt into the dry ingredients until they are mix. Fold in the golden raisins. Pour using spoon the batter into the prepared baking pan smoothing the surface to even.
• Bake 40 minutes, testing so that a toothpick inserted in the center comes clean. Note that low-fat cakes suffer more when over-baked, then their conventional higher fat counterparts. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack. Once the cake is cool, center on serving plate.
• To prepare icing, sift sugar into a bowl and add a pinch of salt. Add lime juice one teaspoon at a time until you arrive at your desired consistency for drizzling. Stir in the lime zest. Drizzle on cake as you wish, either randomly or in a pattern.

BOOZY BAKED CARAMELISED BANANAS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 8. Toss the banana halves in an ovenproof dish with the sugar, maple syrup and rum or whisky. Sprinkle with a small pinch of salt, if you like.
• Bake for 15 mins, then remove from the oven. Heat the grill to high and grill the bananas for 3-5 mins, or until bubbling and caramelised. Spoon the bananas into bowls and scatter over the pecans. Serve with ice cream, and any of the caramelised syrup from the dish drizzled over the top.

BANANA DATE BREAD WITH LIME

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter and flour an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2-inch loaf pan.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda and set aside.
• With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the butter, sugar, and lime zest in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs, 1 at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Beat in the banana and vanilla and fold in the dates. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
• Transfer the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached, 55 to 65 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool for 15 minutes, then flip the loaf out of the pan, turn it right-side up, and let it cool completely.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 1 month.

BANANAS IN LIME SYRUP

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine the sugar and 2/3 cup water over medium-low heat. Stir occasionally, until the sugar dissolves. Pour into a bowl and cool.
• Finely grate the zest of the limes into the syrup. Squeeze in their juice and stir.
• Peel the bananas, thinly slice them and submerge in the syrup. Cover, and refrigerate for 1 to 6 hours.
• Serve with a few spoons of syrup or as a topping for ice cream.

HONEY-BAKED BANANAS

Steps:

• Place the bananas in a greased 1-qt. baking dish. Combine the butter, honey and lemon juice; drizzle over bananas. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until heated through. Sprinkle each serving with coconut and pecans; top with a dollop of whipped topping.

BANANA BREAD WITH COCONUT-KEY LIME GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
• Mix flour, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
• Beat sugar and butter together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth and well blended. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add bananas, yogurt, and rum; beat until blended. Add flour mixture and beat on low speed or by hand until just moist. Stir in fresh coconut and pour into the prepared loaf pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together powdered sugar, Key lime juice, and coconut flakes for glaze in a bowl. Drizzle over warm bread.
• Remove warm bread from the pan and place on a wire rack. Drizzle glaze over top and allow to cool completely before cutting, about 30 minutes.

BANANA UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Make the topping: In an oven-safe 10-inch skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar, lemon juice and salt, and whisk until the brown sugar melts, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Let cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture starts to smell like caramel and darkens slightly, about 1 minute longer. (Don't walk away, or the mixture may burn.) The mixture will clump and separate, but that's OK.
• Add bananas and nuts, gently tossing to coat with the caramel. Remove from heat and arrange fruit into an even layer on bottom of skillet. Ignore any sugar clumps; they will dissolve during baking.
• Make the cake: In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, sugar, vanilla and lemon zest until thoroughly combined. Whisk in eggs, one at a time. Add sour cream and whisk until well mixed. Sprinkle in baking powder, salt and baking soda into the batter, one at a time, and whisking vigorously after each addition.
• Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in flour until just incorporated. The mixture will be lumpy, but that's OK. Don't overmix. Scrape batter into the skillet over the fruit and spread evenly.
• Bake until surface is deeply browned all over (with darker brown edges) and the fruit is lightly bubbling around the sides of the skillet, about 35 to 45 minutes, rotating halfway through. A toothpick inserted into cake will come out clean.
• Once the cake is out of the oven, immediately run a butter knife or offset spatula around the edge of the skillet. Let sit for 10 to 15 minutes to cool slightly. Carefully invert cake into serving platter. If some fruit or nuts stick to bottom of skillet, gently remove them using an offset spatula or knife and place them back onto cake. Let the cake cool until the fruit topping sets, at least 30 minutes to 1 hour, before serving. Cake is best served on the day it is baked.
