Banana Panna Cotta

I suddenly keep finding myself with way too many bananas ripe at the same time. So, I wanted a somewhat healthy snack that was quick and easy to make. I was able to come up with this panna cotta recipe to suit my personal needs without adding too much fat to the nutritional value.

I did find it annoying to remove the panna cotta from the liners I used and it will require running a butter knife around the edge of the muffin slot to release. I think individual silicone muffin holders or individual ramakins may work best and can be used to serve without a need to remove the panna cotta at all. That’s just my personal opinion as I am not above eating an ugly panna cotta if it tastes good.
