Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bananas

    Peel the ripe bananas and cut them in half lengthwise.

  2. 2

    Make the Sauce

    In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the brown sugar and cinnamon until the mixture is bubbly and the sugar is dissolved.

  3. 3

    Add the Bananas

    Carefully place the banana halves in the skillet, cut side up. Cook for about 1-2 minutes until they are heated through.

  4. 4

    Flambé

    Remove the skillet from the heat and carefully add the brandy. Return to the heat, and with a long lighter or match, ignite the brandy. Allow the flames to subside as the alcohol burns off.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Spoon the warm banana mixture over scoops of vanilla ice cream in bowls. Serve immediately.
