How to Make Strawberry Banana Gelatin Salad With Pecans
- In a medium bowl, sprinkle 1 (3 ounce) package of unflavored gelatin over 1 cup of cold water. Let stand for 5 minutes to bloom.
- In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of water over medium heat. Slowly pour the hot water over the bloomed gelatin, stirring constantly until completely dissolved.
- Add 1/2 cup sugar to the gelatin mixture and stir until dissolved.
- Refrigerate until the gelatin is slightly set, but still pourable (about 30-45 minutes).
- While the gelatin chills, hull and slice 1 pound of fresh strawberries. Slice 2 ripe bananas into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
- Roughly chop 1/2 cup of pecan halves.
- Gently fold the strawberries, bananas, and pecans into the slightly set gelatin.
- Pour the mixture into a 9x13 inch dish or individual serving dishes.
- Refrigerate until firm (at least 2-3 hours, or preferably overnight).
- Before serving, garnish each serving with 1 tablespoon of whipped cream, if desired.
