Ingredients

1 cup part-skim ricotta 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg 1/4 cup light-brown sugar 1/4 cup granulated sugar 1/8 teaspoon coarse salt 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract 4 ripe, firm bananas, peeled

Directions

Preheat broiler, with rack 6 inches from heat source. Mix ricotta and nutmeg in a small bowl. Mix sugars, salt, and vanilla in a small bowl. Cut bananas diagonally 1/4 inch thick, keeping slices in order as you cut. Discard tips.

Spread 1/4 cup ricotta mixture in each of four 5-inch-wide by 1-inch-deep baking dishes. Fan 1 banana around edge of each dish, creating a circle. Gently press bananas into ricotta mixture. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush bananas with water, then sprinkle each with 2 tablespoons sugar mixture. Pat sugar into an even layer on top of bananas to prevent the sugar from clumping and burning.

Broil until sugar has caramelized and bananas have softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve immediately.
