This is what I make when I crave a delectable dessert. Dressed in a sweet apricot sauce with a sprinkling of toasted coconut, the warm bananas are extra yummy when you serve them with a scoop of ice cream on the side.Charles Williams, Cincinatti, Ohio Ingredients:
2 jars (12 ounces each) apricot preserves |
1 cup orange juice |
1/2 teaspoon rum extract |
12 medium firm bananas, peeled |
1 cup flaked coconut |
1 quart peach, vanilla or strawberry ice cream |
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, heat preserves over medium heat until warmed. Remove from the heat; stir in orange juice and extract. Halve bananas lengthwise; cut widthwise into thirds.
2. Arrange cut side down in an ungreased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. pan. Drizzle with apricot sauce; sprinkle with coconut. Broil 4 in. from the heat for 4-6 minutes or until coconut is lightly toasted. Serve with ice cream. Yield: 12 servings.
