4 cups sliced banana (about 5 bananas)

Banana-Split Cheesecake

Crust:
1 cup packaged chocolate cookie crumbs (such as Oreo)
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon butter or stick margarine, melted
Cooking spray

Filling:
3 (8-ounce) blocks fat-free cream cheese, softened
1 (8-ounce) block 1/3-less-fat cream cheese, softened
1 (8-ounce) carton low-fat sour cream
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups mashed ripe banana
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 large eggs

Toppings:
1/3 cup canned crushed pineapple in juice, drained
1/3 cup strawberry sundae syrup
1/3 cup chocolate syrup
1/4 cup chopped pecans, toasted
16 maraschino cherries, drained

Preheat oven to 325°.
To prepare crust, combine first 3 ingredients in a bowl; toss with a fork until moist. Press into bottom of a 9-inch springform pan coated with cooking spray.

To prepare filling, beat cheeses and sour cream at high speed of a mixer until smooth. Add 1 1/2 cups sugar, banana, flour, and vanilla; beat well.

Add eggs, 1 at a time; beat well after each addition. Pour cheese mixture into prepared pan; bake at 325° for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until almost set. Cheesecake is done when the center barely moves when pan is touched. Remove cheesecake from oven; run a knife around outside edge. Cool cheesecake to room temperature. Cover and chill for at least 8 hours. Top each serving with 1 teaspoon pineapple, 1 teaspoon strawberry syrup, 1 teaspoon chocolate syrup, 3/4 teaspoon pecans, and 1 cherry.

Banana and Yogurt Crepes

1 3/4 cups low-fat (1 percent) milk
3/4 cup flour
1 egg
1 egg white
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup, divided
1 container (8 ounces)low-fat banana or vanilla yogurt
1 banana, diced
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fresh mint sprigs, optional
Powdered sugar, optional

Whisk together milk, flour, egg, egg whites and 1 tablespoon of honey in a medium bowl. Allow batter to rest five minutes at room temperature.

Heat a 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking spray. Pour 1/4 cup batter into skillet; quickly tilt and swirl batter to coat bottom of skillet. When crepe is lightly browned at edges, use a thin spatula to loosen and turn over. Cook turned crepe about 20 seconds or until lightly browned; slide onto plate to cool. Continue making crepes with remaining batter. To prevent sticking, place a piece of wax paper between each crepe.

Puree yogurt, vanilla and remaining honey in a blender or food processor until smooth. Add diced banana. Spread each crepe with about 2 1/2 tablespoons of the yogurt mixture. Roll crepes into cylinders. Place two crepes on each serving plate and garnish with mint sprigs, if desired. Makes four servings.

Answer 2

1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
2 tsp.vanilla
2 tsp. lemon juice
4 eggs
2 cups bananas(mashed)
1 tsp. salt
3 1/2 cups flour
2 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. baking powder
1 cup sour cream
1 cup of chopped nuts
PREPARATION:
Cream the butter with the sugar, add extract and eggs, one at a time, then add bananas. Sift all dry ingredients, add to wet ingredients, alternately with sour cream, fold in nuts. Bake in two greased (or spray with nonstick coating) loaf pans at 350 degrees for 50-55 minutes.



Makes two loaves.
Candy's Note:
This is an excellent recipe. I have been making it for a long time. When I have bananas that look kind of over-ripe, and I don't have time to bake my breads right away, I take the bananas and put in the freezer, skin and all. When I am ready to bake, I thaw bananas, and presto, they are nice and soft, so there is very little mashing to be done.

Answer 4

Take and toss 3-4 bananas in a ziplock bag (skin removed) and put them in the freezer. The bananas may get a little darker, but works great for keeping them for other recipes. Use recipe rewards (website) and Betty crocker cookbook (also on line) to pull a lot of my recipes from.
