Categories: Fruits, Desserts, Yogurt
Yield: 4 Servings

2 tb Butter
1/2 c Brown sugar
2 c Sliced bananas
1/2 c Plain yogurt
2 Egg yolks
1/3 c Sugar
1 pk Unflavored gelatin
4 oz Orange juice
3 c Whipping cream

Melt butter in nonstick frying pan. Add brown sugar and bananas. Saute
bananas until they are well coated and soft. Remove from heat and let cool
a few minutes. Add yogurt and puree with bananas in blender. Beat egg yolks
and 1/3 cup sugar in stainless stell bowl over hot water bath or top half
of double boiler until mixture lightens in color and becomes fluffy (about
2 minutes). Add gelatin that has been softened in orange juice to egg
mixture and continue

beating for another 2 minutes. Remove mixture from heat and combine with
banana puree, mixing thoroughly. Refrigerate for 10 minutes. Meanwhile,
whip cream and 3 tbsp sugar into soft peaks. Beat egg whites until they
form firm peaks. Fold 2/3 of the whipped cream (reserving 1/3 for garnish)
into the chilled banana puree. Fold in egg whites. Chill for 4-6 hours. Top
with remaining whipped cream and chipped walnuts. Serve 6-8.
