RECIPES FOR BANANAS

BANANAS ON THE BBQ!

For the perfect close to a BBQ throw on some Fair Trade Organic Bananas in their skins. Choose firm or slightly green bananas otherwise they may dissolve into a mush!

Place on a moderate heat, skins on. Turn as required and remove when they are completely black.

Allow to cook for 3-4 mins each side and then place on a plate (very hot so be careful) and split open. Fill the opening with a flavour of your choice such as brandy, rum or green chartreuse accompanied with a little melted butter for the adult. For children try honey, orange juice or maple syrup accompanied by whipped cream, chocolate sauce or ice cream – the possibilities are endless.

The perfect pudding for an impromptu family gathering!
