Time 31m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 sheets phyllo dough, thawed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
4 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
4 tablespoons chopped toasted pecans
1 medium-ripe banana, sliced lengthwise in quarters
1 tablespoon honey

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Brush 1 phyllo sheet with some of the melted butter. Sift 2 tablespoons of the confectioners' sugar evenly on top. Sprinkle evenly with 2 tablespoons of the nuts. Cut the phyllo sheet in half lengthwise. Place 1/4 of the banana along a short edge of each phyllo half. Starting with the short end, tightly roll up the banana in the phyllo. When you get almost to the end, dab a little bit of honey along the edge to help seal the package. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  • Just before baking, brush the tops of the strudels with more of the melted butter and place them seam-side down on a baking sheet (preferably lined with parchment paper or a nonstick liner). Bake until the strudels are golden brown, 13 to 15 minutes. Serve immediately.
  • Serving suggestion: Whipped creme fraiche.
