Ingredients You'll Need

Ingredients:
2-3 ramekins (reserving the 3rd ramekin for overflow)
non-stick cooking spray
1 large, ripe banana
1 & 1/2 teaspoons fresh-squeezed lime or lemon juice
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large egg whites
1 & 1/2 tablespoons confectioner’s sugar (plus more for dusting)
Melted chocolate for drizzling

You will also need:
2 bowls
1 fork
an electric mixer
(Ingredients may be doubled or tripled in proper ratios if making Warm Banana Souffle for a crowd.


Directions

Directions:


1. In a medium-sized bowl, mash 1 large, ripe banana with a fork. Add 1 & 1/2 teaspoons fresh-squeezed lime (or lemon) juice and 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract. Blend thoroughly and set aside.


2. In a chilled bowl, whip 2 chilled egg whites to a soft peak stage. Gradually add 1 & 1/2 tablespoons confectioner’s sugar to soft peaked egg whites. Continue whipping egg whites on high speed until stiff peaks form.


3. Working in thirds, gradually (and gently) fold the stiffly beaten egg whites into the mashed banana until combined.


4. Spoon souffle mixture into individual ramekins prepared with non-stick cooking spray; divide evenly. While some recipes suggest filling the ramekins just short of the top, I suggest filling the ramekins right to the top or going just slightly passed. Set filled ramekins on a cookie sheet (or jelly roll pan) and place in lower third of a preheated 450 degree F oven with upper rack removed. Turn on the oven’s interior light and keep a close eye on your souffles. Resist the temptation to open the door during baking (to do so would risk the souffles falling prematurely). Bake for approximately 10-15 minutes. Trust your instincts and judge doneness by rise and top browning evenly, in addition to baking time.


5. When souffles are done, remove from oven and drizzle with melted chocolate. Using a non-slip hot pad or thick, textured kitchen towel, remove ramekins to individual plates and serve immediately
