I love banana, I love butterscotch, I love ice cream, I love rum...why not put them ALL together?!? This is one of those recipes you can adjust the taste to your own preference, using rum or extracts or flavorings of your choice, and the amount that suits your taste buds. Ingredients:
4 bananas, medium ripe (just a very few brown speckles) |
2 tablespoons butter |
1/4 cup brown sugar |
1 pint vanilla ice cream |
2 tablespoons dark rum |
whipped cream, optional |
Directions:
1. Peel bananas and cut them in half lengthwise. 2. In a large skillet, melt butter over low heat. 3. Stir in the brown sugar, blending well. 4. Lay the banana halves in the skillet and sauté until bananas are tender, about 10 minutes, turning them once. 5. In a medium bowl, soften the ice cream (I usually just put it in the microwave for about 15 or 20 seconds – until I can stir it with a spoon but it is still thick). 6. Stir rum into the softened ice cream. 7. To serve, place 2 banana halves on each plate; top with brown sugar glaze from the pan. Drizzle with ice cream sauce. Top with whipped cream, if desired. Serve immediately. 8. NOTE: For non-alcoholic topping, just add a tablespoon of vanilla extract, or any other flavoring/extract you would like, instead of the rum. |
