Banana desserts?

by CMMiller » Fri Nov 14, 2008 8:26 pm

I'm looking for something tasty using a number of rapidly aging bananas. Setting aside the usual suspects (banana pudding or banana bread), does anyone have any ideas? Much appreciated,

Christian

Banana risotto. Maybe with coconut milk. Definitely with toasted walnuts.

Kinky. Are we talking an off-dry risotto or something sweeter, a sort of a far-out rice pudding?

The latter. Give it some tropical flavor, maybe a dark rum addition.

Little paper umbrellas optional.
