Banana Souffle

Type: Fruit
Courses: Dessert
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

2   Very ripe bananas - cut into 1" chunks (medium)
2 teaspoons 10mlFresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons 10mlPoire William
1 teaspoon 5mlVanilla extract
4   Eggs - separated, at room temperature
3 tablespoons 45mlSugar - plus
2 teaspoons 10mlSugar
1   Cream of tartar
  Garnish
  Fresh raspberry puree - strained of seeds

Recipe Instructions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Spray four 1 1/2-cup souffle dishes with nonstick cooking spray.

In a food processor, puree the bananas with the lemon juice, Poire William and vanilla until smooth. Add the egg yolks and 1 teaspoon of the sugar; process to blend thoroughly. Scrape the banana base into a medium bowl.

In a mixer bowl, beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar at high speed until stiff peaks form. With the mixer on, sprinkle on the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar and continue beating until the whites are glossy. Fold the egg whites into the banana base.

Spoon into the prepared dishes; the mixture will mound to the top. Run your thumb around the inside rims to form a 1/4-inch groove in the mixture; this will help the souffles rise evenly.

Set the dishes on a baking sheet and bake for 7 minutes. Reduce the heat to 425 degrees and bake for 7 minutes longer, or until puffed and browned. Spoon a little raspberry sauce on top and serve immediately.
