I have wonderful memories of eating Bananas Foster in New Orleans, and as a dietitian, wanted to find a healthier version. I combined the best of two recipes and added my own tweaks to create this Southern treat. And with this version, it's the perfect dessert for two! Ingredients:
1 teaspoon butter |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
1 teaspoon orange juice |
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1 large banana, sliced |
2 teaspoons chopped pecans, toasted |
1/8 teaspoon rum extract |
1 cup reduced-fat vanilla ice cream |
Directions:
1. In a large nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat. Stir in the brown sugar, orange juice, cinnamon and nutmeg until blended. Add banana and pecans; cook for 2-3 minutes or until banana is glazed and slightly softened, stirring lightly. Remove from the heat; stir in extract. Serve with ice cream. Yield: 2 servings. |
