Individual Desserts course Banoffee recipe
Posted by marcus stone on June 3, 2024 at 20:19Hello,
I am hoping to get some help with the recipe for the banana ganache. I have made it a few times and followed everything EXACTLY. When I whip it , it does not really whip up or gain volume. It pretty much has the same texture as before leaving overnight & whipping it, more like mashed bananas. Is the recipe accurate? Other banana ganache recipes I saw use 4x-5x the amount of chocolate to the same amount of bananas. Also, what is the correct amount of gelatine if using 200 bloom leaves?
Please advise,
Thanks

Hi Marcus
The amount of gelatin sheets you need for this recipe is 1 and a half sheets of gelatin with approximately 200 bloom.
I leave you the link to a page where you have a gelatin sheet converter.

If you used the milk cream with the exact percentage of fat as indicated in the recipe and the exact percentage of cocoa for the chocolate and followed the exact steps you should not have problems with the result.

Thank you so much for your prompt reply. I check and the only thing I had different was my cream was 30%. I will try and find 35% and try again. I don’t know why it’s so hard to find 35% cream, all the stores only carry 30%.
