I saw this recipe in a Taste of Home cookbook and I knew that this was the answer to my leftover banana problem. No more wondering what to do with them other than the tired old banana bread. This is it!

The butter, sugar and bananas are cooked, and then the alcohol is added and ignited. The bananas and sauce are then served over the ice cream. Preparation of the dish is often made into a tableside performance as a flambĂ©. (From Wikipedia)

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe bananas that are still firm enough to hold their shape.
  • If you don't have bananas foster sauce, you can make your own by simmering bananas in butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon until the bananas are soft and caramelized.
  • You can also use vanilla ice cream instead of gelato.
  • If you don't have a kitchen torch, you can caramelize the bananas under the broiler.
  • To make the sundae even more decadent, top it with whipped cream and a cherry.
