BANANAS BAKED WITH ORANGE/LEMON SAUCE

Makes 4 servings.


Ingredients
• 4 bananas
• ¼ cup orange marmalade
• 2 Tbsp lemon juice
• 1 Tbsp grated orange peel
• 1 Tbsp grated lemon peel
• 2 mint sprigs (for garnish, optional)


Directions
Remove ends from bananas. With a knife, slit banana skin on the back of each banana from top to bottom, but leave the skin on the banana (to keep the banana from bursting).

Bake bananas in their skins in a 375-degree oven for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, mix marmalade and lemon juice.

When done, remove bananas from oven and discard the skin.

Center each banana on a dessert plate.

Pour 1½ Tbsps sauce over each banana.

Mix orange and lemon peels and sprinkle 1½ tsps over each banana.

Garnish with mint.
