Bananas Foster Pudding

This pudding is the result of two flavor ideas floating around in my head; Banana Chocolate Chili, based on an ice cream I made last summer, and Pralines and Cream, my favorite ice cream from childhood. Since I made a pudding with chocolate earlier this week, I ditched the cocoa and went for banana with a buttery rum and maple pecan profile. Make sure to serve pudding with a generous dollop of the rum whipped cream, topped with chopped maple pecans, to get crunchy maple pecan, whipped cream, and banana pudding in each bite. This would also make a terrific ice cream.

Roasted Banana Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

I am on what can only be referred to as the 'wedding dress diet'. It's the diet that deletes all the good foods; like butter and mayonnaise and ice cream all for the sake of a dress. It baffles me too but I am committed. So for one last hurrah I revved up the ice cream maker to make something for Jim. He loves bananas. As usual, my ice cream base is an adaptation from Ad Hoc at Home.

Gluten free Lofty Banana Pancakes with Cinnamon and Flax

These lofty banana pancakes taste so naughty without being heavy (before or after you eat them). They really hit the spot.They are simple to make, taste a bit on the naughty side while being healthy. *Note to the pancake chef: When you freshly grind your flax seeds, store them in a sealed container in the refrigerator to preserve their freshness for the week. I frequently have (peeled) frozen bananas stored in the fridge and have thawed them (and their juice) and it works beautiful in these pancakes as well.
