GRILLED BANANAS WITH ICE CREAM AND BOURBON-CARAMEL SAUCE
Steps:
- Combine brown sugar, cream, butter, and honey in heavy large saucepan. Scrape in vanilla seeds; add beans. Stir mixture over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and bring to boil.

Cut unpeeled bananas in half lengthwise. Arrange, cut side up, on baking sheet. Brush cut sides with caramel sauce. Place bananas, still cut side up, on grill rack. Close barbecue; grill until peels are slightly charred and fruit is tender and beginning to come away from peel, about 4 minutes. Place 1 banana half, cut side up, on each plate. Top each with ice cream, warm caramel sauce, and pecans.
GRILLED BANANAS
Steps:
- Build a charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill.
- Slice the bananas, in their skins, in half crosswise and then lengthwise so each banana yields 4 pieces. Set aside on a clean platter. In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon. Drizzle the honey on the cut sides of the bananas and sprinkle them with the cinnamon sugar. Let the bananas sit for 5 minutes.
- Place the bananas, cut side down, on the center of grill. Grill for 2 minutes or until grill marks appear. Using a pair of tongs, turn them over and cook for 5 more minutes, or until the skin pulls away from the bananas. Remove the bananas from the grill and serve them immediately, on top of vanilla ice cream and drizzled with bourbon or liqueur, if desired.

BANANAS FOSTER ON THE GRILL
Bananas Foster is my husband's favorite dessert, and this is one of the easiest recipes I've ever found. Not only is it delicious, it's a great way to use those bananas that are a little too ripe to just peel and eat. -Rebecca Clark, Warrior, Alabama

Steps:
- Prepare grill.
- Peel bananas and halve lengthwise. In a shallow baking pan large enough to hold bananas in one layer stir together butter and brown sugar and add bananas, tossing gently to coat. Transfer bananas with a metal spatula to an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals and grill until browned and cooked through, about 2 minutes on each side. (If bananas are difficult to handle you may grill them on 1 side only.)
- Serve bananas like a banana split with ice cream and chocolate sauce.
- To make rum ice cream:
- In a 2 1/2- to 3-quart heavy saucepan combine cream and milk. Scrape seeds from vanilla bean into cream mixture, dropping in bean. Add zest and bring mixture just to boil.
- In a large metal bowl whisk together brown sugar and yolks until combined well. Add hot cream mixture to yolk mixture in a slow stream, whisking, and return custard to pan. Cook custard over moderately low heat, whisking constantly, until thickened and coats back of a wooden spoon, about 3 minutes. (Do not let custard boil or it will curdle.)
- Pour custard through a very fine sieve into cleaned metal bowl and cool slightly. Stir in rum and chill, covered, until cold. Freeze custard in an ice-cream maker. Makes about 1 1/2 quarts.
- To make Mexican hot chocolate sauce:
- In a heavy saucepan heat chocolate and half-and-half over low heat, stirring frequently, until chocolate is melted. (The sauce will have a very thin consistency, like that of hot chocolate.) Serve sauce warm. Makes about 1 cup.
GRILLED BANANA SPLITS WITH HOT FUDGE AND RUM CARAMEL SAUCE

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.

SO YUMMY GRILLED BANANAS WITH CARAMEL SAUCE AND CREMA MEXICANA
I found this in the LA Times Food Section years ago, and adapted it for a crowd. We make these when we go camping and we're sick of S'mores. We just bring a bunch of bananas and the components we prepared ahead of time and make them until we can't eat any more. Don't be tempted to use store bought caramel; home made sauce really makes a diference, and it's quick and easy to make. IMPORTANT: When you go to the store, you DO NOT want the Crema Agria - that's like sour cream. Crema Mexicana is like Creme Fraiche and tastes sweet, like heavy whipping cream.

Steps:
- Make caramel:.
- Melt butter in medium saucepan over medium-low heat, then add brown sugar and whipping cream
- Simmer over medium heat and stir occasionally (about 8 minutes).
- Sauce is ready when it is golden brown; it will thicken as it cools.
- Cool completely, then pour into a container (I use one of those squeeze bottles to take with our camping stuff).
- It's OK to keep at room temp, but I would put in fridge if you want to keep longer than a couple of days.
- Prepare bananas:.
- Combine sugar and cinnamon.
- Slice each banana in half lengthwise.
- Roll each banana half in cinnamon sugar, until completely coated.
- Grill coated bananas over hot coals (ideally, you will grill them after dinner, when the coals are nicely glowing; we don't want a raging fire here).
- Grill bananas until the sugar begins to carmelize, but be careful; don't let them burn.
- To serve, put two banana halves on a plate, drizzle with caramel sauce and serve with a dollop of crema Mexicana.

GRILLED-PEACH SUNDAES WITH SALTED BOURBON-CARAMEL SAUCE
This recipe came to The Times from John Currence, the celebrated chef in Oxford, Miss. It is a meditation on the delights of summer: fresh, juicy peaches, cold buttermilk and whipped cream -- and grilling. The alcohol from the bourbon will burn off when you mix it into the caramel, so don't worry about serving it to children.

Steps:
- Prepare the peaches: Heat a charcoal grill while you bring a saucepan of water to simmer. Score the bottom of each peach with an X, then blanch for about 45 seconds, until skin near the X looks loose. Remove peaches with a slotted spoon and cool in a bowl of ice water. Peel the peaches. Then, with a paring knife, start at the stem of the peach and make a single cut around to the tip. Rotate hands in opposite directions, twist and free flesh from pit.
- Lay the peach halves cut side up and brush lightly with peanut oil; sprinkle with salt. Place the peaches cut side down on grill (you can also use a stovetop grill pan set over medium heat) and cook until there are grill marks, about 2 minutes. Brush with oil and sprinkle with salt. Flip and grill the other side.
- Make the pecans: Toss the first four ingredients in a bowl; spread on a nonstick cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes, or until nicely toasted. Remove and toss with the sugar.
- Make the caramel: Combine the sugar, water and corn syrup in a saucepan and bring to a low boil. Gently swirl the mixture in a circular motion (do not stir) and allow it to boil down until it is a deepamber caramel, at least 10 minutes. Carefully whisk in the cream, protecting your hand from the steam. Immediately whisk in the butter and continue to stir over low heat until mixture is smooth. Stir in salt and bourbon and whisk again. Remove from heat and allow to cool before using.
- Make the whipped cream: Whip the cream until soft peaks form. Stir in powdered sugar and vanilla and whip to stiff peaks. Drizzle in the buttermilk and whip until incorporated. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- To assemble: Place 2 peach halves in a bowl; scoop ice cream into each pit and add a dollop of whipped cream. Sprinkle with pecans and drizzle salted bourbon-caramel sauce over the whole shebang.

Tips:
- Choose ripe bananas for grilling. Unripe bananas will not be as sweet or flavorful.
- Grill the bananas over medium heat. This will help to caramelize the sugars in the bananas and create a delicious smoky flavor.
- Do not overcook the bananas. Overcooked bananas will become mushy and lose their flavor.
- Serve the grilled bananas immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include ice cream, whipped cream, caramel sauce, and nuts.
- For a boozy twist, add a splash of bourbon to the caramel sauce.
- If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the bananas in a grill pan over medium heat.
Conclusion:
Grilled bananas are a delicious and easy dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a summer cookout or a cozy night in. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and satisfying. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give grilled bananas a try. You won't be disappointed!
