Ingredients
- ¼ cup unsalted butter 57 grams (½ stick)
- ¼ cup brown sugar 53 grams
- 2 ripe bananas peeled, halved, and sliced lengthwise
- ¼ cup Chopped pecans or walnuts 113 grams, optional
- 3 tablespoons spiced rum 42 grams
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon optional
- ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt optional
- 2 coops vanilla ice cream for serving
Instructions
- In a medium-sized skillet set over medium heat, melt the butter and brown sugar together until the mixture begins to bubble, about 3-5 minutes.
- Place the banana pieces, cut-side down, into the brown sugar mixture. Cook for 30-60 seconds, until just golden. Flip and cook until golden on the other side, another 30 seconds. Add the nuts to the skillet, if using.
- Remove the skillet from the stovetop and increase the heat to high. Pour the rum into the skillet and return it to the stovetop. Using a long wand lighter, carefully ignite the liquid in the skillet. Allow the flames to burn and die down, then remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle in the cinnamon and salt (if using).
- Scoop vanilla ice cream into 2 bowls, then divide the bananas and sauce between the bowls and serve immediately.
Notes
- Storage: Store bananas foster (without ice cream) in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- Note: Because bananas foster is cooked quickly, only some of the alcohol burns off. An estimated 75-85% of the alcohol will remain in the dish, so save this one for the adults.
