How to Make Microwave Banana Surprise
- Cut the stem ends off the bananas.
- Place bananas, still in their skins, on a microwave-safe plate, curved side up.
- Cut each banana lengthwise in half and place them cut-side down on the plate.
- Arrange banana halves to cover the plate as much as possible.
- Microwave on high for 10-15 minutes, or until the skins are dark brown or black, checking and rotating the plate every 5 minutes to ensure even cooking.
- Carefully remove the plate from the microwave and let the bananas cool slightly until they are safe to handle.
- Peel off the skins from the bananas.
- Transfer the cooked banana flesh to a mixing bowl.
- Mash or stir the bananas thoroughly with a fork or potato masher.
- Add honey and maple syrup (if using). Mix well.
- Stir in the chopped nuts, shredded coconut, nutmeg, and cinnamon.
- If the mixture is too thick, add a little more honey or maple syrup until you reach your desired consistency.
- Spoon the banana mixture into the graham cracker shells or pie crust.
- Garnish each serving with a walnut half.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to chill before serving.
- Serve with whipped cream or Cool Whip, if desired.
