Ingredients
4 pieces parchment paper
4 bananas, each cut in half the longway and then in half the shortway
1 lemon, juiced
4 teaspoons butter
1/4 cup honey
2 teaspoons chopped pistachios
1 teaspoon orange rind, julienned
1/2 teaspoon ginger, peeled and minced
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Fold the sheets of parchment in half and cut out large half circles along the crease, creating full circles folded in half. Unfold the circles and stuff them each with 4 pieces of banana and 1/4 of all the other ingredients. Fold the edges back together, creating a half-circle shaped pouch, and seal the edge by crimping and rolling it over itself or by stapling. Bake on a sheet pan for 3 to 4 minutes until well heated through. Cut the paper open at the table in front of your guests so they experience the fragrance of the ingredients.
