Cooking Light, December 2000. To simplify the making of the topping, substitute bottled fat-free caramel sauce for the sugar and water. Heat the sauce in the microwave for 1 minute, then stir in the raisin mixtures. The raisins should sit in the rum for at least 30 minutes - the longer the better. A galette is a free-form pastry. Slice the banana immediately before arranging them (or add a little lemon juice so as not to discolor). To dress up more, serve warm with vanilla frozen yogurt. Ingredients:
1/4 cup golden raisin |
2 tablespoons dark rum |
0.5 (15 ounce) package refrigerated pie dough (such as pillsbury) |
cooking spray |
3 cups diagonally sliced ripe bananas (about 1 1/2 pounds sliced 1/4-inch thick) |
1/2 cup sugar |
2 tablespoons water |
Directions:
1. Combine raisins and rum in a small bowl; set aside. 2. Preheat oven to 425°F. 3. Roll dough into a 10 1/2-inch circle, and place on a foil-lined baking sheet coated with cooking spray. 4. Arrange the banana slices in concentric circles on crust, leaving a 1-inch border. 5. Fold a 2-inch dough border over banana slices, pressing gently to seal (dough will partially cover slices). 6. Bake at 425°F for 30 minutes. 7. Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan; cook over medium heat until golden (about 8 minutes). 8. Remove from heat; carefully stir in raisin mixture until combined. 9. Cool slightly. 10. Pour over banana slices. 11. Cut into 6 wedges. |
