2. Cooking Directions

  1. Line a sieve or colander with cheesecloth and set over a bowl, leaving at least 1/2 inch clearance from the bottom. Spoon in yogurt. Cover with plastic wrap and let drain in the refrigerator for at least 1 1/2 hours.
  2. About 20 minutes before serving, position rack in top third of oven; preheat to 425 degrees F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  3. Place bananas, cut sides up, on the baking sheet. Sprinkle with brown sugar, cinnamon and rum (or lemon juice). Dot with butter. Roast in the oven for 5 minutes. Turn on the broiler; broil until the bananas are golden and the sugar is bubbly, about 2 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, beat cream, cocoa and confectioners' sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer, scraping down the sides of the bowl once or twice, until soft peaks form. Push the cream to one side; add the drained yogurt and fold into the cream with a rubber spatula until blended. Drizzle the roasted bananas with any juices accumulated in the pan and serve with a dollop of the chocolate cream.

Yield: 4 servings

3. Still Hungry?

Bananas with yogurt sounds like a simple breakfast combination, but dress the bananas up with a little butter, rum and sugar, run them under the broiler and you've got a decadent dessert.

Notes:

Make Ahead Tip

The yogurt can be drained overnight.

  • Awsome dessert for everyone!

    This is a great recipie....and especially great on the grill for a bbq desert....just make a "bowl" out of tin foil for indvidual banannas and add ingredients and bbq!!! Its a real nice surprise at a bbq. Try melting marshmellows on top of bannanas instead of using whip cream, if u want a all hot dessert....but the cool whip cream is inviting with this dessert. U can use a vanilla extract too, in place of lemon juice or rum...or even try real maple syrup..........mmmmmm!!!
