About Banana Mousse

Usually, I end up making cakes, muffins and
desserts once or twice a week at home. This
base formula of a mousse, which I keep
experimenting with by adding different fruits
is my go-to recipe. The Banana Mousse is
one of those many tried and tested versions.

I came across this particular mousse recipe a

few years back in one of the cookbooks. It
has stuck with me till today and I have been
making variations with it. Other than this
Banana Mousse, I have also used the same
recipe for these delicious Chocolate
Mousse, Mango Mousse and Strawberry
Mousse too.

All you need for this Banana Mousse is some

bananas, fresh cream, honey and lemon juice.
Just process these as the recipe calls for and
enjoy a smooth, delish dessert done within
minutes. The only time that it takes is to chill
and be set properly.

Why this Banana Mousse is a sure shot

winner?

Because it is really easy to make, eggless and

naturally vegetarian. This recipe also doesn’t
involve any cooking and has no sign of
gelatin or agar agar in it. Still the result is a
humble, yet gorgeous mousse ready in
absolutely no time!

Step-by-Step Guide

How to make Banana

Mousse
1. Peel, slice bananas and add them to a
blender jar along with 2 tablespoons honey.
Also, add 3 to 4 drops of lemon juice so that
the bananas do not get discolored.

I used 400 grams (about 14 ounces)

bananas. The bananas I used were 6 small
variety of Indian bananas (called Elaichi
bananas). You can add 4 medium-sized
Robusta like bananas or 3 large bananas.

2. Blend the bananas to a smooth puree.

Ensure that there are no chunks in the puree.

3. Now, add a little more than ¾ cup cream or

200 ml cream to the pureed bananas.

4. Pulse the blender 6 to 8 times so that the

cream is evenly mixed with the bananas.

5. Now, pour the mousse mixture in small

individual serving bowls or shot glasses.

6. Cover them with a lid or aluminium foil and

refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours or overnight for
the mousse to completely set.

Expert Tips
1 I use the cream with 25% milk-fat and
bananas that are on the verge of ripening
too much, for this recipe. These really do
wonders to this particular mousse
preparation. If you have whipping cream
or 35% to 50% fat cream, you can use
them as well.

2 Make variations of this recipe with other

fruits like apples, mangoes, strawberries
and blueberries. However, do not use
citrus fruits or melon.

3 I have used honey as a sweetener in this

recipe as it pairs really well with bananas.
You can interchange it with sugar or your
preferred sweetener instead.

4 This Banana Mousse can be served plain.

You can also top it with regular or
caramelized banana slices, whipped
cream and grated chocolate or dust with
cocoa powder.

FAQs
Can hung curd be used as an alternative to
fresh cream in this recipe?
Yes. However, the taste will alter if you use
hung curd and the mousse will have a certain
sourness to it. Adjust the sweetener
accordingly when using hung curd.

Which cream should I use for this recipe?

Light cream or heavy cream?
You can use light cream with 25% milk-fat
and also whipping cream or heavy cream.
The banana also helps to give it a mousse like
texture here.

My mixture got spoilt after adding the

cream. What could be the reason?
Before adding the cream, smell it. It should
have a fresh, milky aroma to it. If it smells
even faintly sour, discard it as it is spoilt. You
can’t use this cream for making the mousse.

Can I use milk instead of cream?

No, you cannot as milk will give it a custard or
pudding like consistency.

What toppings can I use for this Banana

Mousse?
You can add toppings like some fresh banana
slices, a dollop of whipped cream or some
grated chocolate.
