ingredients
- 1 large ripe banana
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 large egg whites
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, plus more for dusting
directions
- 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.
- 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.
- Working in thirds, gradually (and gently) fold the stiffly beaten egg whites into the mashed banana until combined.
- Spoon souffle mixture into 2 or 3 individual ramekins prepared with non-stick cooking spray; divide evenly.
- 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.
- When souffles are done, remove from oven and dust with confectioner’s sugar. Using a non-slip hot pad or thick, textured kitchen towel, remove ramekins to individual plates and serve immediately.
