Software
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon banana liqueur
- 2 under-ripe bananas, sliced in half lengthwise
- 1/4 cup dark rum
- 1/2 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
ACTIVE TIME: 12 minutes
TOTAL TIME: 12 minutes
Yield: 2
Procedure
- Melt butter in a 10-inch heavy skillet over low heat. Add the brown sugar, allspice, and nutmeg, and stir until sugar dissolves. Add banana liqueur and bring sauce to a simmer. Add the bananas and cook for 1 minute on each side, carefully spooning sauce over bananas as they cook. Remove bananas from pan to a serving dish.
- Bring sauce to a simmer and carefully add the rum. If the sauce is very hot, the alcohol will flame on its own. If not, use a stick lighter to carefully ignite the sauce and continue cooking until flame dies out, 1 to 2 minutes. If the sauce is too thin, cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until it reaches a syrupy consistency. Add the orange zest and stir to combine. Immediately spoon the sauce over bananas and serve. Serve with waffles, crepes, or ice cream.
