Best 7 Brilliant Banana Brulee Recipes

BRILLIANT BANANA LOAF

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
• Butter a 2lb loaf tin and line the base and sides with baking parchment.
• Cream 140g softened butter and 140g caster sugar until light and fluffy, then slowly add 2 beaten large eggs with a little of the 140g flour.
• Fold in the remaining flour, 1 tsp baking powder and 2 mashed bananas.
• Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and bake for about 50 mins, or until cooked through. Check the loaf at 5-min intervals by testing it with a skewer (it should be able to be inserted and removed cleanly), as the time may vary depending on the shape of your loaf tin.
• Cool in the tin for 10 mins, then remove to a wire rack.
• Mix 50g icing sugar with 2-3 tsp water to make a runny icing.
• Drizzle the icing across the top of the cake and decorate with a handful of banana chips.

BANANA BRULéE

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.

• Serve up to your delighted family or guests!

BANANA CREME BRULEE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Over medium heat, melt the butter in a saute pan. Add the bananas, and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of white sugar. Stir well to blend the sugar and butter. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. The bananas should be lightly caramelized. Mash the bananas with the back of a wooden spoon. Add the lemon juice to the mixture, raise the heat to high, add the brandy, and boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat, divide among 6 wide, shallow creme brulee dishes, and let cool. Place the heavy cream in a saucepan. Split the vanilla bean lengthwise, and scrape the seeds into the cream with the tip of a knife. Add the scraped-out vanilla bean, and bring the cream just to a boil, then remove from heat. Reserve. Place the egg yolks and 5 tablespoons of white sugar in the top of a double boiler. Whisk them together, then stir over simmering water until the mixture becomes fairly thick (about 15 minutes). Strain the reserved cream into eggs, and stir the mixture over simmering water for 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and ladle over the cooled banana puree in the 6 dishes. Place the dishes in a roasting pan, and fill the pan with enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the dishes. Bake in the oven for 40 minutes. Remove the dishes from the pan, and chill them for at least 3 hours.
• When you are ready to serve, sprinkle 2 teaspoons of light brown sugar over each dish, distributing evenly. Place the dishes on a bed of cracked ice in a roasting pan, and position the pan under a broiler until the sugar caramelizes. Watch carefully, and move the dishes around so the sugar browns evenly but doesn't char. Remove and serve while the crust is still hot.

CREME BRULEE WITH BANANA PUREE

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 300 degrees.
• Over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a saute pan. Add 3 bananas, coarsely chopped, and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of sugar. Stir well to blend sugar and butter. Cover and cook for 5 minutes.
• Mash bananas with the back of a wooden spoon. Add the juice of 1/4 lemon to the mixture, raise heat to high, add 3 tablespoons Spanish brandy, and boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat, divide among 6 round, shallow, 6" oven-proof dishes, and let cool.
• Place 3 cups of heavy cream in a saucepan with 1 vanilla bean. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat. Reserve.
• Place 8 egg yolks and 5 tablespoons of sugar in the top of a double boiler. Stir over simmering water until the mixture becomes fairly thick--about 15 minutes. Add the reserved cream with vanilla bean, and stir the mixture over simmering water for 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and ladle over the cooled banana puree in the 6 dishes.
• Place the six dishes in 1/2-inch of water in a roasting pan. Place in the oven, and bake for 40 minutes. When done, remove and chill for at least 1 hour.
• When ready to serve, place the dishes on a bed of cracked ice in a roasting pan. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of light brown sugar over each dish, distributing evenly. Place under a broiler for 3 minutes, or until sugar caramelizes. Remove and serve immediately, or re-chill and serve cold.

EASY BANANA CRèME BRûLéE

Steps:

• Spread wafer pieces onto bottom of shallow 1-1/2-qt. casserole; top with bananas.
• Cook pudding with 2 cups milk as directed on package; pour over bananas. Refrigerate several hours or until firm.
• Heat broiler when ready to serve dessert. Sprinkle sugar over pudding. Broil 3 to 5 min. or until sugar is melted and lightly browned. Serve immediately.

HOT BANANA CRèME BRûLéE

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.
