Adding just a little lemon juice not only keeps the bananas from turning dark but it also adds a zesty flavour to this creamy casserole

Ingredients

Calorie controlled cooking spray

4 spray(s)

Wholemeal bread, sliced

12 slice(s), medium, quartered

Skimmed Milk

240 ml

Maple Syrup

160 g

Egg, whole, raw

Instructions

  1. Mist a small baking dish with cooking spray and arrange the bread quarters to line the sides and bottom in a single layer.
  2. Place the milk, syrup, eggs, soft cheese, 2 bananas, vanilla, lemon juice, nutmeg, cinnamon and salt in a blender and blitz until smooth. Slowly pour the mixture over the bread, making sure it is completely submerged. Cover with foil and chill for 30 minutes (or overnight).

  4. Just before baking, thinly slice the remaining 2 bananas and tuck slices in between the pieces of bread. Bake, covered with foil for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for a further 10 minutes, until golden brown. Sprinkle with icing sugar, slice into 12 and serve immediately.
