Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350. Grease a loaf pan.
- Cream together butter and sugar. Stir in eggs, banana, yogurt and lime juice. Add salt, ginger and coconut. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, sift together dry ingredients. Add to the wet mixture and mix until smooth. Pour into loaf pan.
- Bake 1 hour or until done. Cool for 10 minute.
- Meanwhile, make the glaze. Combine the brown sugar, butter, rum and lime juice in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly for about 5 minutes or until it becomes a thin syrup.
- Pour over the cooled loaf and sprinkle with toasted coconut.
Tips:
- Choose ripe but firm bananas for this recipe. Overripe bananas will become too mushy in the syrup.
- Use fresh lime juice for the best flavor. Bottled or concentrated lime juice will not produce the same results.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the syrup by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the syrup forms a soft ball, it is ready.
- Be careful when working with hot syrup. It can cause serious burns.
- Store the bananas in lime syrup in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
Bananas in lime syrup is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that can be enjoyed all year round.
