Recipe from BBC...

  I found this one on BBC site...
  
  
  
  
  Preparation time less than 30 mins
  Cooking time 30 mins to 1 hour
  
  
  
  Ingredients
  
  4 bananas
  750g/1 lb 11oz ricotta cheese
  125g/4½oz caster sugar
  2 tbsp cornflour
  3 large eggs
  2 pieces of stem ginger in syrup, drained and finely chopped
  75g/3oz sultanas
  
  Method
  
  1. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
  2. Place the bananas on a baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes or until the skins blacken and the bananas feel soft - this time may vary depending on how ripe your bananas are.
  3. When cooked, peel the bananas, mash with a fork and leave to cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 180C/350F/Gas 4.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the ricotta, sugar, cornflour and eggs and beat with an electric whisk until smooth. Stir in the mashed banana, ginger and sultanas.
  5. Pour the mixture into a 23cm (9in) non-stick spring form cake tin, place on a baking sheet and bake for 40-45 minutes until golden - it will still feel a bit wobbly but will set as it cools.
  6. Turn off the oven, open the door and leave the cheesecake in the oven until completely cool.
  7. Once cool, chill for at least an hour or two in the tin, before cutting into wedges to serve.

  This banana cheesecake sounds awesome - the ginger is a great touch. (It also happens to be wheat-free!) Does this recipe have an official name?
  
  I just realized that on my Welcome message I asked people to share recipes "here", but what I meant was "to add recipes to the group". Oops :-) Could you please post this as a recipe?
  
  Thanks Annie :-)
