Extremely simple. Delicious hot, or cool it down in the fridge and eat it cold. You can also make it with just the heated bananas, in a pinch. Another way to make it, if you like a slightly burnt flavor, is by sauteeing the bananas in a nonstick skillet for a couple of minutes, until you get some browning and carmelizing action going on. You can use butter in the skillet, but you know that adds saturated fat and salt (and flavor... but hey, everything's a compromise). Bananas rock! Goooo BANANAS!

Ingredients

400	g bananas
1/2	tsp allspice
1/2	tsp nutmeg
1/2	tsp cinnamon
1	tsp vanilla extract

Directions

1. Peel bananas and break into pieces, pack into pot or microwave-safe container so there isn't a whole lot of airspace between the pieces (heats 'em up faster).
   
   
2. Heat the bananas until they start boil and liquefy, either in a pot on the stove or in the microwave (in a heat-proof container!). Remove as soon as boiling is noted, mash and stir with a fork until it takes on a pudding-like consistency. If you don't want it thick, if you like your puddings more liquid in texture, you can heat it for another minute or two; stir if on stove.
   
   
3. Stir in vanilla extract. Sprinkle nutmeg, cinnamon, and allspice on top, to taste (I like it best with lots of nutmeg and allspice, but your mileage may vary).
