Servings:4
Preparation Time:10
Cooking Time:20-30
Ingredients
- 3 Bananas sliced
- 70 g butter and 30g melted for the Filo
- 100 g Soft brown sugar
- 1 Lemon juiced
- 1 packet Ready-made Filo pastry (if you can’t get Filo it could be made with puff pastry)
Method
- Set oven at 200c or 180c for fan oven.
- In a frying pan melt the butter and add the brown sugar, then add the bananas and cook lightly. The butter and sugar should caramelise.
- Now add the lemon juice and mix in well. Simmer gently and take off heat. The mixture should be quite thick and the bananas intact.
- On a baking sheet brushed with melted butter lay out a sheet of Filo and brush surface with more melted butter.
- Next, lay another sheet on top and repeat, continue until there are none left. Lay the banana mixture in a line down the middle of the pastry, leaving a gap at either end.
- Now fold the ends inwards and the edges over one another to form a parcel, brushing with melted butter as you go. You are trying to avoid any leaks of banana mixture.
- Bake for about 20-30 mins until golden brown and serve with cream or custard.
