Instructions
Remove one sheet and place it on a cutting board or other work surface.
Place one peeled banana along one of the narrow ends,
Sprinkle the dough evenly with a fourth of the walnuts.
Sprinkle the banana with a dusting of cinnamon and then roll it up in the phyllo.
Place it seam-side down in the baking dish. (If making in single-serving dishes, cut wrapped banana in half and place halves in dish side by side.) Repeat with remaining bananas. Give the tops of the wrapped bananas a quick (1/2 second) spray with canola oil.
Bake for 20-30 minutes, until tops are golden brown and bananas have begun to sizzle and release a syrup. To serve, cut bananas in half and place two halves on each plate, along with some of the banana syrup from the baking dish.
Drizzle with about a tablespoon of Chocolate Sauce. For best results, serve immediately.
