Ingredients
- 2 egg whites
- 40 g butter
- 80 g cane sugar (4 tbsp)
- 0.5 tsp cinnamon
- 3 sheets filo dough (approx. 30 x 40 cm)
- 4 firm bananas
- 1 lime
- nutmeg
- 2 tbsp liquid honey
- 30 g chocolate (70 % cocoa)
- 4 tbsp yogurt (1.5 % fat)
Instructions
- 1. Separate the eggs. Set the yolks aside for another use. Melt 30 grams of butter and let it cool. Whisk the cooled butter into the egg whites in a small bowl. Mix sugar and cinnamon in a separate dish.
- 2. Cut the puff pastry sheets in half to create six large rectangles (approx. 15 x 40 cm each). Place two rectangles side by side. Brush them thinly with the egg white and butter mixture.
- 3. Sprinkle some of the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top. Place another pastry sheet on top. Brush this layer with the egg white mixture as well. Sprinkle with more cinnamon sugar. Place a third pastry sheet on top.
- 4. Brush the top pastry layer with the remaining egg white mixture. Sprinkle it with the rest of the cinnamon sugar.
- 5. Cut each large pastry package into four smaller rectangles (approx. 15 x 10 cm each). Line a baking sheet with baking paper. Place the pastry pieces on it.
- 6. Preheat the oven. Bake the pastry pieces at 200 °C conventional heat (or 180 °C fan, gas mark 3-4) on the middle rack until golden brown. Remove them and let them cool on a wire rack.
- 7. Grease a baking dish with the remaining butter. Peel the bananas and place them in the dish. Squeeze the lime and measure out 2 tablespoons of juice.
- 8. Grate some nutmeg into the lime juice mixture. Stir in the honey. Toss the bananas in the mixture to coat them well. Bake them in the preheated oven (200 °C conventional heat, 180 °C fan, gas mark 3-4) for 12 minutes. Turn the bananas once halfway through baking.
- 9. Shave the chocolate into fine curls using a vegetable peeler.
- 10. Place one cooled pastry sheet on each of four plates. Place a baked banana on top. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of yogurt over each. Sprinkle with the chocolate shavings. Cover the banana with another pastry sheet and serve immediately.
