    Meanwhile, place bananas in a medium bowl; drizzle with lemon juice and toss gently to combine. Remove 1 cup of banana slices to a small bowl; mash well with a fork.

    Place cream and powdered sugar in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment at medium-high speed until very stiff peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes; be careful not to overbeat so much that the cream separates.
