GRILLED BANANA SPLITS WITH HOT FUDGE AND RUM CARAMEL SAUCE



Grilled Banana Splits with Hot Fudge and Rum Caramel Sauce image

Everyone loves banana splits. But, hey, when the bananas are grilled to caramelized perfection and then topped with goodies -- watch out! This recipe is from"Emeril at the Grill" by Emeril Lagasse.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Holiday Planning & Ideas     Labor Day

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 firm-ripe unpeeled bananas, halved lengthwise
6 tablespoons honey
12 tablespoons (3/4 cup) packed light-brown sugar
Vanilla ice cream, for serving
Hot Fudge Sauce, for serving
Rum Caramel Sauce, for serving
2 cups lightly sweetened whipped cream, for serving
Finely chopped roasted lightly salted peanuts, for serving
6 maraschino cherries, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to high, and lightly oil the grill grate.
  • Place the banana halves, cut side up, on a baking sheet and drizzle the honey evenly over them. Sprinkle with the brown sugar. Place the bananas, cut side up, directly on the grill, arranging them so they are perpendicular to the grill grate. Close the grill cover and cook until the bananas are caramelized around the edges and the fruit is beginning to pull away from the peel, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Carefully transfer the grilled banana halves (still in their skins) to a small baking sheet. Using two small forks or a long, thin spatula, carefully remove the banana halves from their skins and place 2 pieces of banana on each dessert plate. (This is a little tricky because the bananas are now very soft.) Top each banana with 1 or 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream. Drizzle with the Hot Fudge Sauce and Rum Caramel Sauce. Top with dollops of whipped cream and sprinkle with chopped peanuts. Garnish each banana split with a maraschino cherry, and serve immediately.

Yield Serves 10

Number Of Ingredients 15

Crumble
1 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup hazelnuts (about 5 ounces), coarsely chopped
Pinch of salt
Filling
3/4 cup sugar
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
6 medium bananas (about 2 pounds), peeled, cut into 3/4-inch-thick slices
2 tablespoons Frangelico (hazelnut liqueur) or amaretto
10 sheets fresh phyllo pastry or frozen, thawed
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
White Chocolate Sauce

Steps:

  • For Crumble:
  • Preheat oven to 300°F. Stir sugar and butter in medium saucepan over low heat until butter melts. Remove from heat. Mix in flour, nuts and salt. Spread on baking sheet. Bake until dry and golden, about 30 minutes. Cool. Break into small pieces. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.)
  • For Filling:
  • Stir sugar, 6 tablespoons butter and lime juice in large nonstick skillet over low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to high and stir until butter melts and mixture begins to brown around edges, about 5 minutes. Add bananas and liqueur; stir until bananas are coated with butter mixture, about 2 minutes. Transfer to large bowl and cool.
  • Mix 1 cup hazelnut crumble into banana mixture. Place 1 phyllo sheet on work surface (keep remaining phyllo covered with plastic wrap, then damp towel). Brush phyllo with melted butter. Fold phyllo in half crosswise, brush with butter, then fold in half again, forming square; brush with butter. Place generous 1/4 cup filling in center of phyllo square. Bring all edges of phyllo square up toward center and squeeze firmly at top, forming purse. Place on baking sheet. Repeat with remaining phyllo sheets, melted butter and filling, forming total of 10 purses. (Can be prepared 6 hours ahead. Chill.)
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Cover phyllo purses loosely with foil. Bake until purses begin to color, about 30 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking until phyllo is golden, about 15 minutes longer.
  • Place 1 purse on each of 10 plates. Spoon 3 tablespoons warm White Chocolate Sauce around each. Sprinkle remaining hazelnut crumble over sauce.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use ripe bananas. They're sweeter and have a more intense flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when caramelizing the bananas. Otherwise, they'll steam instead of caramelize.
  • Be patient when caramelizing the bananas. It takes a few minutes for them to develop a deep golden brown color.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the doneness of the hot chocolate sauce by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If it forms a soft ball, it's done.
  • Serve the caramelized banana splits immediately, while the bananas are still warm and the hot chocolate sauce is hot.

Conclusion:

Caramelized banana splits with hot chocolate sauce are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that's perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that's sure to impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give this recipe a try.
