Tips & Suggestions

1. Freeze bananas ahead of time. Choose fresh bananas that are partially green or just turned yellow with no brown spots. The more they ripen the sweeter they become & have a higher calorie count. Slice them about 1/2″ thick & place, in a single layer, in a quart sized freezer bag. Use them within 2 weeks or so.

2. Medjool dates are larger than regular dates & have a magnificent creamy caramel taste to them. You can find them in the produce section of most larger supermarkets.

3. It’s worth the money to buy good quality vanilla extract, as the taste is far superior to the cheaper imitation vanilla. You can find the good quality vanilla extract in the spice isle in most large supermarkets.

4. It’s easier to remove the ramekins from the oven when on a cookie sheet.
