Ingredients
100g/3½oz caster sugar
2 bananas, peeled and sliced lengthways
100g/3½oz brazil nuts, roughly chopped
200g/7oz ready-rolled puff pastry
100ml/3½fl oz double cream, to serve
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
2. Heat the sugar in a small ovenproof frying pan over a low heat until just starting to caramelise. Add the bananas to the sugar and sprinkle over the chopped nuts.
3. Unfold the pastry and cut out a circle slightly bigger than the frying pan. Place the pastry on top of the bananas and tuck the edges around the filling. Put the frying pan into the oven for about ten minutes, or until the pastry is lightly golden-brown and crisp on top.
4. Remove the frying pan from the oven and place a large plate on top. Wrap a towel around the pan and carefully turn the pan upside down so the bananas are on top of the pastry on the plate. Serve with cream.
