Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 tbsp salted butter
3/4 cup (168g) packed light or dark brown sugar
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp heavy cream
3 bananas, halved lengthwise, then halved crosswise
3 tbsp dark rum
Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Add the butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and cream to a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat.
  • Allow the butter to melt and continue to whisk while cooking until the sugar has melted and the sauce is smooth (about 3 to 5 minutes). You don't want to cook on too high heat or it will heat too quickly before the sugar fully melts.
  • Add the bananas and allow to cook 2-3 minutes, to lightly soften the bananas.
  • Remove the pan from heat and pour the rum over the bananas and sauce. Using a long lighter, ignite the rum. Gently shake or swirl the sauce around until the flames burn out, about 30 seconds. The flames will burn blue and can sometimes be very subtle.
  • Spoon warm bananas and sauce over ice cream and serve immediately.

Time 15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 stick salted butter
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 bananas
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
1/2 cup dark rum
Dash cinnamon
Vanilla Ice Cream, for serving

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.
