I did not place the banana slices in water. I thought that would make things too mushy. The bananas that I used were ripe, as suggested in the recipe. I did sautee walnuts in a butter/healthy spread blend with cinnamon. This provided a crunchy texture. Similarly, I spread out slices of banana coated with the nuts on top allowing those ingredients, plus the vanilla wafers to be identifiable and deconstructs what is layered below.Reply
