Steps

Prepare Bananas

Peel the bananas, then thoroughly mash them with a fork in a bowl or purée them with an immersion blender. Add the lemon juice and mix well to prevent the bananas from browning.

Whip Cream

In a cold bowl, whip the cold heavy cream with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip, as it can curdle.

Combine & Chill

Gently fold the whipped cream into the banana purée until you have a homogeneous, light cream. Spoon the mousse into dessert glasses and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to chill thoroughly and allow the flavors to meld.

Extra Tips

► For the best results, use very ripe bananas; they are the sweetest and most aromatic.

► Chill the cream and the bowl you'll be whipping it in beforehand; this helps it whip up firmer and faster.

► Garnish with fresh fruit, grated chocolate, or a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving.
