Bananas Foster
More like Banana Foster, but you'll likely want to double the recipe.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 tbsp rum
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1 banana, sliced into 1/4" strips, then cut every 2 inches
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
- 4 scoops vanilla ice cream
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a large skillet on medium heat.
- Stir in sugar, rum, vanilla, and cinnamon.
- Keep stirring until the mixture bubbles.
- Add the bananas and optional walnuts.
- Cook until the bananas are hot, 1-2 minutes, then serve over a scoop of ice cream.
- Very Optional - set the rum on fire after you add the bananas. If the rum doesn't ignite, add 1/2 oz of your favourite flammable alcohol. Do not do this unless you know what you're doing. Only use a long match, or a long lighter. Never put out kitchen fires with water - use a Class B fire extinguisher, or smother with a lid. If you don't have a Class B fire extinguisher handy, don't set your food on fire!
