Steps:
- For ice cream:
- Bring cream and half and half to simmer in heavy medium saucepan. Add peanuts. Cover; remove from heat. Let stand 30 minutes. Strain cream mixture through sieve set over large bowl, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Whisk in sugar and yolks. Return to saucepan. Stir over medium-low heat until custard thickens and leaves path on back of spoon when finger is drawn across, about 4 minutes (do not boil). Strain into medium bowl. Chill uncovered until cold. Transfer custard to ice cream maker and process according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer ice cream to container. Mix in brittle. Cover and freeze until firm. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Keep frozen.)
- For tartlets:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Using electric mixer, beat 2/3 cup sugar and butter in medium bowl until well blended. Beat in yolks. Mix in flour, then nuts. Set peanut cream aside.
- Unfold pastry on work surface. Cut each pastry sheet into 4 squares; pierce all over with fork. Place 4 pastry squares on each of 2 baking sheets, spacing apart. Brush egg glaze over pastry. Spread 2 tablespoons peanut cream over each pastry, leaving 1/2-inch plain border. Arrange bananas in overlapping slices atop peanut cream. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons sugar. Bake until crusts are golden brown, about 30 minutes. Transfer to plates. Serve warm with ice cream.

Tips:
- To achieve a perfectly golden-brown crust on your tartlets, ensure that your oven is preheated to the correct temperature before baking. This will help the pastry cook evenly and prevent it from becoming soggy.
- When preparing the peanut crunch ice cream, it's important to use high-quality peanut butter. This will impart a richer, more decadent flavor to the ice cream. Additionally, ensure that the ice cream is churned until it reaches a thick and creamy consistency, as this will prevent it from becoming icy.
- To create a visually appealing presentation, consider garnishing your tartlets with additional peanut crunch, chocolate shavings, or fresh berries before serving. This will add a touch of elegance and make your dessert even more inviting.
Conclusion:
- The combination of warm banana tartlets and peanut crunch ice cream creates a delightful dessert that is both comforting and sophisticated. The tartlets are perfectly flaky and golden-brown, while the ice cream is creamy and packed with peanut butter flavor. Together, they make a perfect ending to any meal.
- This recipe is a great way to use up ripe bananas and it's also a fun and easy dessert to make with friends or family. It's a delicious and satisfying treat that is sure to be a hit at any gathering.
