Bananas Flambe with Coconut Sorbet image

Caramelized bananas and a scoop of cool sorbet make for an impressive tropical dessert.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 bananas, peeled and sliced 1/2 inch thick on the bias
2 ounces Jamaican rum
1 pint coconut sorbet or ice cream
1/3 cup toasted unsweetened coconut
1 lime, cut into wedges (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large saute pan melt butter over high heat. Sprinkle sugar evenly over butter and scatter banana slices over sugar in a single layer. Allow mixture to boil vigorously undisturbed until sugar melts and bananas caramelize on bottom.
  • Remove from heat and pour rum into pan. Carefully light rum in pan, standing back to avoid flame, and allow flame to burn out, 30 seconds.
  • Divide sorbet and bananas between four bowls, top with toasted coconut and a squeeze of lime juice, and serve immediately.
