Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Break 1 banana into pieces and purée in a blender with lemon juice, granulated sugar, and yolks until smooth. In a very small saucepan heat cream over moderate heat until hot and add banana mixture, stirring until combined well. Divide mixture between two 2/3-cup ramekins. Put ramekins in a metal baking pan and fill pan with enough boiling-hot water to reach halfway up sides of ramekins. Put pan in middle of oven and lay a sheet of foil over each ramekin. Bake custards until set, about 30 minutes.
- Set broiler rack so that custard tops will be 1 1/2 to 2 inches from heat and change oven setting to broil. Alternatively, have ready a blowtorch.
- Just before serving, very thinly slice remaining banana and arrange slices, overlapping them, over each custard. Sprinkle turbinado sugar evenly over bananas and heat under broiler (or with blowtorch, moving flame evenly back and forth just over sugar) until sugar is melted and caramelized.

Another Alton Brown favorite, this is actually part of his Banana Splitsville recipe. You can serve this with ice cream or as is.

Steps:
- To make the bananas brulée, quarter the bananas lengthwise (peel on) and rub into sugar to coat thoroughly.
- Remove peel and place on cooling rack over several layers of foil. (Don't try this on your dining room table.).
- Don your safety goggles and fire up your torch. Hold the torch so that the very tip of the flame barely touches the banana, and move quickly back and forth until the sugar melts, turns brown, and bubbles. As soon as it looks like caramel, move on. You know you've got it down when a solid, glasslike sheet of gold (no graininess) has formed on the banana.

BANANA CREME BRULEE
TIME DOES NOT INCLUDE 2 HOUR CHILLING TIME: I had a wonderful banana creme brulee recipe that I made for years. But somewhere along the line, lost the recipe. I finally came across this one from Willliams-Sonoma that is very close to what I had. I'll try it tonite and see how it goes! For a perfectly creamy custard, line the baking pan with a kitchen towel, and then add the filled ramekins and boiling water. This technique works very well when making Mexican Flan and other custards. Don't skip the tea towel!!!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Have pot of boiling water ready.
- Peel 1 of the bananas and cut in thirds. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the cream, cut banana and the 1/4 cup sugar.
- Cook, stirring, until steam rises, 4 to 5 minutes. Let stand 10 to 15 minutes.
- In a bowl, beat the egg yolks and vanilla until blended.
- Strain the cream through a fine-mesh sieve set over a bowl; discard the cooked banana. Pour the cream into the yolks, a little at a time, stirring constantly until smooth; divide among four 6-oz. ramekins.
- Line a 3-inch-deep baking pan with a kitchen towel, place the ramekins in the pan and add boiling water to fill the pan halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Cover loosely with foil and bake until set, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Remove the ramekins from the pan, cool to room temperature and refrigerate 2 to 3 hours.
- Peel the remaining banana and slice crosswise into slices 1/8 inch thick. Arrange 7 or 8 slices over the top of each crème brûlée and sprinkle 2 teaspoons sugar evenly over each surface.
- With a kitchen torch, move the flame continuously in small circles over the surface until the sugar melts and lightly browns. Serve immediately.

BANANA PECAN BRûLéE OATMEAL FOR TWO IN A PRESSURE COOKER RECIPE - (5/5)
Provided by Foodiewife
Number Of Ingredients 9
Steps:
- Combine ingredients in pressure cooker pot, select high pressure and set to 10 minutes cook time. Do a natural pressure release (about 5 to 7 minutes.) Turn on the broiler, with the rack in the highest position. There might be extra liquid, and I prefer my oatmeal a bit thicker. I simply turned on the saute cycle and stirred this constantly for 2 to 3 minutes, until most of the liquid had evaporated. Turn off the saute cycle. Stir in the milk and vanilla. Spoon into oven-proof ramekins and set onto a baking tray. Layer the bananas on top and top with brown sugar. Heat broiler, with rack 4 inches from heat. Top oatmeal with bananas and brown sugar and broil until bananas are caramelized, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle with pecans to serve. Broil the oatmeal until it's bubbly and caramelized (watch closely, this may take 1 to 1 1/2 minutes). NOTE: I have a brûlée torch, but didn't want to use the propane, since the broiler worked just tine. Top with pecans. Lovely!
BRILLIANT BANANA BRULEE
Not sickly-sweet due to the mix of yoghurt with custard which gives this great tangy taste. My son said it was the best dessert he'd had for ages!! The recipe came from the back of a carton of Ambrosia custard.
