BRAZILIAN WHOLE BANANA PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of brown sugar over the bottom of a small saucepan or skillet. Cook over medium heat until melted. Stir in water until sugar is completely dissolved. Heat to between 234 and 240 degrees F (112 to 116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface. Pour the syrup into a round baking dish or deep dish pie plate and spread to coat the bottom.
• Make a layer of bananas on top of the melted sugar. In a medium bowl, stir together the whole wheat flour, wheat germ, oats and 1 cup of brown sugar. Mix in the margarine using your hands, pinching it into small pieces to make a crumbly dough. Sprinkle half of this over the bananas in the dish and pat down. Top with the remaining bananas and sprinkle with about half of the cinnamon. Spread the rest of the dough over the bananas and pat the pie smooth. Sprinkle remaining cinnamon over the top.
• Bake for 45 minutes in the preheated oven, until the pie topping is toasted and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

EASY BANANA FRIED PIES

Steps:

• 1. Recipe: Easy Fried Banana Pies If you're looking for something a little different to serve for dessert at weekend get-togethers, try these easy-to make Fried Banana Pies. • Get some large, firm, barely ripe bananas. Each banana will make four mini-pies. Barely ripe bananas will hold their texture better. • Get some Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry dough. It comes in ready-to-use sheets in your grocery's freezer section. (I tried filo dough, but it's too fragile for me to work with. Your mileage may vary.) • You'll also need some honey, and/or brown sugar if desired, powdered confectioner's sugar, and vegetable cooking oil. 1. Peel and slice bananas in half longways, and then in half again crossways. 2. Lay out a sheet of puff pastry dough. I roll it out a little thinner to make it go further and make the pies less doughy. 3. Cut a square of pastry dough slightly longer than a banana piece, and place the banana on it. Put a little honey on the banana, and/or sprinkle a little brown sugar if desired, roll it up so it looks like an eggroll, then pinch all the seams and ends together to seal it. 4. Fry in a skillet with 1/4" or so of medium-hot cooking oil. Fry on each side until the dough is done to a crispy golden brown. 5. Remove from skillet and use a paper towel to absorb excess oil. Sprinkle with powdered confectioner's sugar. Serve hot, alone or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt. Yum!
