1
Slice the Bananas
Peel the ripe bananas and slice them diagonally into 1/2 inch thick pieces.
2
Melt the Butter
In a medium skillet over medium heat, add the unsalted butter. Allow it to melt completely.
3
Add Brown Sugar and Cinnamon
Once the butter is melted, stir in the brown sugar and cinnamon. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture is bubbly and the sugar has dissolved, about 2-3 minutes.
4
Add Bananas
Gently fold in the sliced bananas into the butter-sugar mixture. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the bananas to soften slightly.
5
Flambé with Rum
Carefully add the dark rum to the skillet. If desired, use a long lighter to ignite the rum, allowing the flames to burn off. This step adds flavor and flair, but it is optional.
6
Serve
Remove from heat and serve the warm banana mixture over a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy immediately!
