Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bananas

    Peel the bananas and slice them in half lengthwise. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Bananas

    In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar and cinnamon, stirring until the mixture is bubbly. Add the bananas to the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden and coated with the sauce.

  3. 3

    Flame the Bananas

    Carefully add the banana liqueur and dark rum to the skillet. Using a long lighter or match, ignite the alcohol. Allow the flames to burn for a few seconds to caramelize the sauce, then gently shake the skillet to extinguish the flames.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Scoop the French vanilla ice cream into serving dishes and spoon the flambéed bananas and sauce over the top. Serve immediately.
