In a 10-inch skillet over low heat melt butter, add maple syrup and stir in cinnamon and nutmeg to butter. Bring to a simmer, add bananas, allow to cook for about 1 minute on either side, spooning sauce over the bananas. Remove bananas and place in a s3erving dish. Bring skillet to a simmer and add Grand Marnier to butter-syrup mixture.
