Method
Directions
Prepare the Bananas
Peel the bananas and slice them in half lengthwise. Set aside.
Make the Sauce
In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the brown sugar and cinnamon, stirring until the mixture is bubbly and the sugar has dissolved.
Add Bananas
Carefully add the banana halves to the skillet, cooking for about 1-2 minutes on each side until they are caramelized and tender.
Flambe
Remove the skillet from heat, carefully pour in the dark rum, and then return it to the heat. Using a long lighter or match, ignite the rum to create a flame. Allow the flames to subside as the alcohol burns off.
Serve
Spoon the caramelized bananas and sauce over scoops of vanilla ice cream. Serve immediately while the sauce is warm.
