Categories     dessert

Time 25m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 bay leaves
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup fresh orange juice
1 cup packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons brandy
Pinch salt
6 ripe bananas, peeled and cut on the bias into 1/3-inch slices (about 1 quart)
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon fresh coarsely ground black pepper
Store bought chocolate cake or ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • In large skillet over high heat, melt the butter and cook until it browns, about 3 minutes. Add the bay leaves and stand back (it may pop). Add the lemon juice, orange juice, brown sugar, brandy, and a pinch of salt. Bring the mixture up to a boil. Stir and cook until the liquid has reduced by half and it has reached a syrupy consistency, about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Add the bananas and pepper. Stir to coat the bananas evenly. Serve immediately spooned over cake or ice cream.
  • Cooking Notes: You can make the sauce hours ahead of time. Just add the fruit after you bring the sauce back to a simmer. The fruit should be a little cool inside. Serve it with a good, store bought chocolate cake or spoon it over your favorite ice cream.

BROILED BANANAS

Categories     dessert

Time 25m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 ripe but not overly ripe bananas
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon or so of fresh lime or lemon juice
Sour cream, optional
Chopped nuts, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler. Peel bananas and slice them crosswise into 3/4-inch thick slices. Mix the brown sugar and lime juice and toss this with bananas. Spread the sliced bananas in a shallow baking pan and broil, as close to the heat source as possible, until the sugar has melted into a glaze - 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a pretty serving bowl and serve immediately - topped with sour cream and nuts if you wish.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Bananas: Select ripe but firm bananas for broiling. Overripe bananas will become too mushy during the broiling process.
  • Prepare the Bananas: Before broiling, peel the bananas and cut them in half lengthwise. This allows the lemon-sugar mixture to penetrate the bananas more easily.
  • Use Fresh Lemon Juice: Fresh lemon juice provides a bright, tangy flavor to the bananas. Avoid using bottled or concentrated lemon juice, as it may have a more muted flavor.
  • Generously Coat the Bananas: Brush the bananas liberally with the melted butter, lemon juice, and sugar mixture. This ensures that the bananas are evenly coated and caramelize nicely during broiling.
  • Broil at High Heat: Preheat the broiler to high heat to quickly caramelize the bananas and prevent them from becoming dry. Keep an eye on the bananas during broiling to ensure they don't burn.
  • Serve Warm: Broiled bananas are best served warm, straight out of the oven. You can serve them on their own as a simple dessert or use them as a topping for pancakes, waffles, or ice cream.

Conclusion:

Broiled bananas with lemon and sugar are an easy and delicious dessert that can be prepared in just a few minutes. The combination of sweet, caramelized bananas and tangy lemon-sugar mixture creates a delightful treat that is sure to please everyone. Whether you serve them as a simple dessert or use them as a topping for other dishes, broiled bananas are a versatile and flavorful addition to any meal.
