Steps:
- Melt the butter in a heavy skillet over a medium-high heat. Add the brown sugar. Stir together and cook for a minute or two. Pour in the cream and stir it around to combine.
- Peel the bananas and slice them on the bias inside the peel. Drop the slices into the pan. Next, add the chopped nuts and stir them into the sauce. Then - and this is where you need to be a little careful - stir in the rum. Let it start to bubble, and then carefully use a long lighter to ignite it. (Be sure to have a lid handy in case you need to extinguish the flame.) Let the fire burn and go out (it'll only take about 30 seconds or so), and then stir in the cinnamon at the end. You may also cook the mixture without flambeing it.
- Spoon it over a couple of scoops of vanilla ice cream and enjoy immediately.
- Spoon bananas Foster over French toast, waffles or crepes. Substitute peaches, pears or cherries for the bananas. Of course, then it probably wouldn't be considered bananas Foster.
BANANAS FOSTER
The New York Times food editor Jane Nickerson first published this recipe in 1957 as part of an article on New Orleans-style Creole cooking. Adapted from Brennan's restaurant, this recipe is meant to be a showstopper. But it's deceptively easy. Be sure to have a lid at the ready to extinguish the flame in case things get out of hand. If you cannot find banana liqueur, just add a teaspoon more rum.

Number Of Ingredients 6
Steps:
- Preheat oil to 350°F, enough that the 3-inch medallions can float freely. Spray counter lightly with non-stick spray. Cut each roll in half and flatten each half into a 3-inch circle. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest. Melt butter in a skillet. Add brown sugar and heat to a low boil. Cook at this temperature for five minutes, stirring constantly (butter and sugar may not combine completely). Add bananas and continue to cook at a low boil. Mixture will be thin. Stir constantly until mixture thickens. Remove from heat to cool. Remove wrap from dough circles. Brush 12 of the circles, around edges, with the beaten egg. Divide cooled banana filling equally between the remaining 12 dough circles. Top with the 12 egg washed dough circles, egg washed side down, and pinch together to seal completely. Before deep frying pinch edges together once more. Fry in small batches until deep golden brown on both sides. Place on a rack to drain. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, if desired.

- Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful the Bananas Foster Medallions will be.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the bananas, make sure to leave enough space between them so that they can caramelize properly.
- Use a heavy-bottomed skillet: This will help to prevent the bananas from burning.

- Serve immediately: Bananas Foster Medallions are best served warm, so make sure to serve them as soon as they are cooked.
