Ingredients

  • 2 2/3 lbs bananas, ripe (about 5 large bananas)
  • 1/2 vanilla bean, sliced open lengthwise
  • 6 cups water
  • 3/4 cup manioc starch
  • 1 cup coconut milk or 1 cup light cream
  • 2/3 cup sugar

Method

  • Peel the bananas, cut into large slices, and place them in a large saucepan with the water and vanilla. Bring to a boil and cook 15 minutes. Drain the fruit, setting the vanilla bean aside.
  • When the bananas have cooked, puree in a food processor. Add the starch and scrape vanilla seeds into the mix. Mix thoroughly so that the mixture is smooth and creamy. Fill a buttered casserole dish with the poe, and place in a 300 degree oven for 30 minutes.
  • Remove poe from oven and cut into small pieces. Serve with the coconut milk or cream and sugar.
