Banana marshmallows are prepared from ripe fruits of an exotic plant. It is easy to make puree from them. Also, ripe bananas will give a rich aroma to the marshmallow, which will be impossible to resist. Sugar in the recipe can be replaced with fructose or stevia. Choose agar-agar with a gelling effect of at least 1000, otherwise the marshmallow will not harden well.
