Banana Coffee Mini-Tarte Tatin

Banana Coffee Mini-Tarte Tatin

Saw a recipe for banana tarte tatin, and then I saw a recipe for bananas in coffee bean syrup, and so I had to have both. But, I simplified – just added instant coffee to the sugar & melted butter, and it turns out coffee and caramelized bananas were meant to be. There was no ice cream on hand, but some merengue helped topped the tarte.

I know this might be blasphemy, but I think bananas work better than apples in this tatin thing.

Here are both recipes:

While I’ve only ever had them raw, I image they would be amazing in something like your tatin.]]>
