Banana mousse

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 25 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make banana mousse? Prepare all the necessary products. First of all, soak the required amount of gelatin in cold water. Leave to stand for 20-30 minutes to allow the gelatin to swell.

2. STEP 2

   

   When the gelatin is ready to use, make the mousse. To do this, take bananas, peel them, break them into pieces and pour a little lemon juice on them. This is necessary so that the banana does not darken. Grind the bananas using an immersion blender into a puree. The mass should become homogeneous, completely free of lumps. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more delicate the taste of the finished mousse.

3. STEP 3

   

   Pour the pre-chilled cream into a deep bowl, add powdered sugar and start beating with a mixer at low speed. After two minutes, when the powder has dissolved, increase the speed to maximum and beat until thickened for 3-5 minutes. The cream must be high in fat, from 33%, otherwise it will not whip.

4. STEP 4

   

   Then add banana puree to the buttercream and mix until smooth using a whisk.

5. STEP 5

   

   Heat the swollen gelatin in the microwave until it dissolves and becomes liquid. Start beating the banana mixture with a mixer at low speed and gradually pour in the liquid gelatin so that it is immediately incorporated into the mousse.

6. STEP 6

   

   Place the finished mousse in prepared bowls and place them in the refrigerator for 1 hour until the mousse hardens. Before serving, decorate the mousse to your liking. Bon appetit!

Tasty! In return, I’ll offer you another delicious treat - fruit yogurt with bananas and tangerines.

There are two bananas left and I don’t want to eat them just like that... As always, I found a recipe for banana mousse on the site in time. First of all, I soaked the gelatin. Peeled the bananas, squeezed lemon juice into them and pureed them in a blender until smooth. The swollen gelatin was heated in a water bath until liquid. I whipped the cream with powdered sugar, combined it with banana puree, without ceasing to beat, and poured in the dissolved gelatin. The mousse was placed into suitable molds. Before serving, garnish with berries (I used frozen) and melted chocolate. Yummy! Delicate mousse with a creamy banana aroma and a light lemon note. Thank you for the wonderful recipe, Yulia M!
