Banana "Cream" Pie
INGREDIENTS
- 12 graham crackers, made into crumbs
- 4 teaspoons margarine
- 4 bananas
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 envelope unflavored gelatin
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 cups plain nonfat yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Grated lime zest
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees, spray a 9" pie plate with nonstick cooking spray
- In bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and margarine with a fork. Press into the bottom and up the sides of the pie pan. Bake until firm, about 3-5 minutes. Cool. (Or you could just buy the ready-made crust if you don't want to make it.)
- In another bowl, toss the bananas with the lime juice. Reserve one cup. Arrange remaining bananas over the crust.
- In a small saucepan, sprinkle the gelatin over 1/2 a cup cold water. Let stand two minutes. Add the sugar. Cook over medium high heat, stirring constantly until the mixture boils and the gelatin and sugar dissolve, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in the yogurt and vanilla. Pour into pie plate.
- Arange the reserved bananas over the pie, sprinkle with lime zest. Refrigerate, covered with plastic wrap about 2-3 hours, until chilled.
- Makes 8 servings. For anyone one WW, this is about 4 points a serving.
