Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Caramelize the Bananas

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Slice the bananas in half lengthwise and place them cut-side down in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Flip them and drizzle with caramel sauce, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Banana Bread

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of butter and place the slices of banana bread. Grill until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.

  3. 3

    Make the Whipped Cream

    In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and dulce de leche. Whip until soft peaks form.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Banana Split

    In a serving dish, place the grilled banana bread slices at the bottom. Top with the caramelized bananas, a scoop of vanilla soft serve ice cream, and drizzle generously with caramel sauce. Sprinkle sliced almonds, place chocolate covered cherries on top, and finish with dollops of vanilla and dulce de leche whipped cream.
