A truly fabulous recipe: loved the great blend of flavours and the fact that this recipe was relatively low in fat. We eat a lot of bananas and this is certainly a recipe which turns them into an exotic dish where one savours every spoonful. I particularly liked the inclusion of the walnuts. We enjoyed these yummy bananas with several generous dollops of creamy Greek yoghurt. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe, Paula! :) Made for Ali Baba's Babes for ZWT 5.

This is super delicious! I changed a couple of steps: I had no peanut oil, so i used a little extra butter in the sauce instead. Also, I skipped the frying of the bananas and just heated them in the sauce instead. I'm avoiding alcohol, so i added apple juice instead of rum. I liked it so much, I ate the whole thing - all 4 servings at once (sorry, DH!) :-)
