Toast Base

Banana Topping

Method

Prepare the Toast

  1. 1

    Toast the Bread

    In a skillet or frying pan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced bread and toast on both sides until golden brown and crispy.

Make the Banana Topping

  1. 2

    Prepare the Bananas

    Peel and slice the ripe bananas into thin rounds.

  2. 3

    Create the Sauce

    In the same skillet used for the toast, add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter and allow it to melt. Stir in 1 cup of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until the mixture starts to bubble.

  3. 4

    Add the Bananas and Rum

    Carefully add the sliced bananas to the skillet and gently stir to coat them in the sauce. Then, add 1/4 cup of dark rum. If desired, you can flambé the rum by carefully igniting it with a long lighter. Allow it to burn off before stirring the mixture.

Assemble and Serve

  1. 5

    Build the Toast

    Place the toasted bread on plates. Generously spoon the banana topping over each slice of toast.

  2. 6

    Add Garnishes

    Sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts over the banana topping. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side of each toast and garnish with fresh mint leaves.

  3. 7

    Serve Immediately

    Enjoy your delicious Bananas Foster Toast warm, with the ice cream melting into the warm banana topping!
