Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Peel the bananas and slice in half lengthwise. Lay the pieces into a buttered 9x13x2-inch ovenproof dish. Pour the lime juice and rum evenly over the bananas. Sprinkle on the cinnamon, nutmeg, and brown sugar. Dot on the butter, if using, and bake for 10 to 15 minutes. Serve hot, topped with a tablespoon of fresh cream or ice cream.
Tips:
- Choose ripe bananas for the best flavor and texture.
- Use a sharp knife to score the bananas, as this will help the sugar syrup penetrate the fruit.
- For a richer flavor, use brown sugar instead of white sugar.
- Add a splash of rum or vanilla extract to the sugar syrup for an extra layer of flavor.
- Serve the bananas warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
