By á-170456

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup finely-chopped peeled ripe bananas
• 1/4 cup golden brown sugar - (packed)
• 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 2 tablespoons finely-chopped walnuts
• 2 tablespoons finely-chopped pecans
• 16 wonton wrappers
• 1 large egg beaten to blend
• Vegetable oil for frying
• Powdered sugar (optional)
• Vanilla Custard Sauce II (see recipe)

Preparation

Step 1

Gently mix bananas, brown sugar, graham cracker crumbs, walnuts and pecans in medium bowl (do not mash bananas). Lay wonton wrappers on work surface and brush edges with egg. Spoon 1 1/2 heaping teaspoons banana filling into center of each wrapper. Fold wrappers diagonally over filling. Press edges to seal. Place on baking sheet lined with plastic wrap. (Ravioli can be prepared 6 hours ahead. Cover with plastic and refrigerate.)

Add enough oil to heavy large skillet to reach depth of 2 inches. Heat over medium heat to 350 degrees. Working in batches, add ravioli; cook until golden brown, about 45 seconds per side. Using slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels; drain.

Arrange ravioli on serving plate and dust with powdered sugar, if desired. Serve with Vanilla Custard Sauce.

This recipe yields 16 ravioli.
