Time 42m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 ounces butter
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
8 ounces, bananas, very ripe, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons dark rum
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1/3 cup sugar, for dusting
12 egg whites
4 ounces sugar
2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped into 1/4 inch chips

Steps:

  • To make the Banana Base: in a medium saucepan, over a high heat, brown the butter. Add the sugars and continue to cook stirring constantly until caramel color, about 5 minutes. Add the chopped bananas and stir until well coated. Continue to cook for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the dark rum and lemon juice. Transfer mixture to a food processor and pulse until smooth. Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool to room temperature.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Brush the inside of 6 (6-ounce) ramekins with softened butter and dust with sugar.
  • To make the souffle: beat the egg whites on medium speed, in a mixer with the whip attachment, to soft peaks. With the motor running, add the sugar in a slow but steady stream. Continue to whip to medium stiff peaks. With a large rubber spatula, fold 1/2 of the meringue into the Banana Base. Add the finely chopped chocolate chips and fold in the remaining 1/2 of the meringue. Fill each prepared ramekin over the top with the souffle mixture. Bake the souffles for 12 minutes. Serve immediately.

This recipe uses very ripe bananas, the ones which you would not want to eat. The riper the bananas are, the more flavor they have.

BANANA SOUFFLéS



Banana Soufflés image

Sweet, creamy mashed banana pulp is an ideal soufflé base, but if you think bananas are just too humble to be turned into an elegant dessert worthy of serving to guests, try these simple soufflés spruced up with some warm chocolate sauce passed alongside. Be sure the bananas that you use are really ripe-the skins of yellow bananas (as opposed to red ones that are less common) should be covered with black speckles and their texture should be soft.

Yield makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 medium very ripe bananas, mashed
2 teaspoons rum
1/2 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 cup (125 ml) pastry cream (page 236)
4 large egg whites, at room temperature
Pinch of salt
2 tablespoons (30 g) sugar, plus more for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Butter four 4-ounce (125-ml) ramekins or soufflé molds. Pour some sugar into each and tilt the ramekin to coat the sides; gently tap out any excess. Set the ramekins on a baking sheet.
  • To make the soufflé base, in a large bowl, thoroughly mix together the mashed bananas, rum, lemon juice, and pastry cream.
  • In a stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment (or in a bowl by hand), whisk together the egg whites and salt on low speed until frothy. Increase the speed to high, gradually add the 2 tablespoons (30 g) sugar, and continue whisking until the whites form shiny, stiff peaks.
  • Fold one-quarter of the whipped egg whites into the soufflé base, then gently fold in the remaining whites, taking care not to deflate them. A few streaks of egg whites are preferable to an overfolded and deflated soufflé mixture.
  • Divide the soufflé mixture evenly among the prepared ramekins, filling each to just below the rim, then sprinkle with a light, even dusting of sugar. Bake until the tops are nicely browned and the soufflés quiver softly when gently nudged, about 10 minutes.
  • Serve the soufflés right away.
  • Pass a pitcher of Bittersweet Chocolate Sauce (page 243) or Raspberry Sauce (page 246) at the table for pouring into the soufflés.
  • The soufflé mixture, once divided among the ramekins, can stand at room temperature for up to 1 hour before baking.
  • You can make a less rich version of these soufflés (that also happens to be gluten-free) by simply substituting 4 teaspoons of sugar for the pastry cream when making the soufflé base.
  • For CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA SOUFFLÉS, add about 2 ounces (60 g) chopped dark or milk chocolate to the soufflé base when folding in the egg whites.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your soufflés will be.
  • Make sure your egg whites are at room temperature: This will help them reach their full volume when whipped.
  • Beat the egg whites gradually: Start on low speed and gradually increase the speed as you beat the whites.
  • Don't overbeat the egg whites: Overbeaten egg whites will be dry and brittle, and your soufflés won't rise properly.
  • Fold the egg whites into the batter gently: Use a spatula to fold the egg whites into the batter until just combined. Overmixing will deflate the egg whites and your soufflés won't rise.
  • Bake the soufflés immediately: Don't let the batter sit for too long before baking, or the soufflés will start to deflate.
  • Serve the soufflés immediately: Soufflés are best served fresh out of the oven, when they are light and airy.

Conclusion:

Banana chocolate chip soufflés are a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little practice, you'll be able to make perfect soufflés every time.
