Banana Biscuits Recipes

BANANA BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Put the banana into a 2-cup measuring cup with the buttermilk. Blend together with an immersion blender until smooth. (You can also use a regular blender to do this). Beat in the butter and the lemon zest. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, sift together the pastry flour, brown sugar, baking soda, cream of tartar, nutmeg, and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the banana mix. Using a spatula, gradually stir the flour from the side of the bowl into the liquid until you have a soft, sticky dough.
• Dust a board with flour. Using the spatula, transfer the dough onto it. Flour your hands and gently form the dough into a ball. Gently roll it out with a rolling pin into a rough rectangle ½-inch thick. Using a 2-inch round cookie cutter cut the dough into discs and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet, leaving room in between for the biscuits to spread as they cook. Work the trimmings together into a ball and roll them out again. Cut what you can out of the remaining dough and place on the baking sheet. Discard any leftover dough. Bake on a middle rack for 12 to 15 minutes, or until well risen and golden. Serve immediately with cream cheese or butter.

BANANA COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5 and line two baking sheets with baking parchment.
• Heat the butter in a small pan on the hob, or in a heatproof bowl in a microwave on high in 30-second bursts, until melted. Tip the butter into a mixing bowl if melted on the hob.
• Stir the sugar into the melted butter with a wooden spoon, then beat in the egg until smooth. Stir in the mashed banana. Sift the flour, bicarbonate of soda, cinnamon and a pinch of salt into the bowl and mix until it forms a soft dough. Add the raisins, chocolate chips or nuts, if using, and stir well until evenly distributed.
• Use a teaspoon to drop small scoops of the mixture onto the prepared trays, spacing them well apart as they'll spread. It should make about 24 cookies. Bake for 10-12 mins until they are light brown on the edges and feel dry to the touch.
• Leave on the tray for a couple of minutes to set, then lift onto a cooling rack to cool completely. Will keep in an airtight container for up to three days.
