Caramelized Bananas

By lorik

Ingredients

• 6 fresh bananas
• 5 ounces granulated sugar
• 2 ounces butter
• 2 ounces Meyer’s Dark Rum
• 5 ounces heavy whipping cream
• Vanilla ice cream
• Sliced almonds, toasted

Preparation

Step 1

Remove the skin and cut each of the bananas into 5 pieces. In a hot pan, melt the granulated sugar until golden brown. Add the butter and bananas. Deglaze with the rum and cream; simmer until the mixture coats the bananas.

To serve, scoop the ice cream into a small bowl (a chocolate bowl would be nice), and center on a dessert plate, place bananas around the plate and garnish with the toasted almonds.
