Categories     dessert

Time 15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 stick salted butter
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 bananas
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
1/2 cup dark rum
Dash cinnamon
Vanilla Ice Cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a heavy skillet over a medium-high heat. Add the brown sugar. Stir together and cook for a minute or two. Pour in the cream and stir it around to combine.
  • Peel the bananas and slice them on the bias inside the peel. Drop the slices into the pan. Next, add the chopped nuts and stir them into the sauce. Then - and this is where you need to be a little careful - stir in the rum. Let it start to bubble, and then carefully use a long lighter to ignite it. (Be sure to have a lid handy in case you need to extinguish the flame.) Let the fire burn and go out (it'll only take about 30 seconds or so), and then stir in the cinnamon at the end. You may also cook the mixture without flambeing it.
  • Spoon it over a couple of scoops of vanilla ice cream and enjoy immediately.
  • Spoon bananas Foster over French toast, waffles or crepes. Substitute peaches, pears or cherries for the bananas. Of course, then it probably wouldn't be considered bananas Foster.

Time 12m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup (1.75 ounces) 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

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a 10-inch heavy skillet over low heat. Add brown sugar, allspice and nutmeg and stir until sugar dissolves. Add banana liqueur and bring sauce to simmer. Add bananas and cook for 1 minute on each side, carefully spooning sauce over bananas as they are cooking. 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, using stick flame, carefully ignite and continue cooking until flame dies out, approximately 1 to 2 minutes. If sauce is too thin, cook for 1 to 2 minutes until it is syrupy in consistency. Add orange zest and stir to combine. Immediately spoon the sauce over bananas and serve. Serve with waffles, crepes, or ice cream.

BANANAS FOSTER



Bananas Foster image

The New York Times food editor Jane Nickerson first published this recipe in 1957 as part of an article on New Orleans-style Creole cooking. Adapted from Brennan's restaurant, this recipe is meant to be a showstopper. But it's deceptively easy. Be sure to have a lid at the ready to extinguish the flame in case things get out of hand. If you cannot find banana liqueur, just add a teaspoon more rum.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful they will be.
  • Slice the bananas evenly. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you crowd the bananas, they will steam instead of caramelize.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet. This will help prevent the bananas from burning.
  • Cook the bananas over medium heat. This will help them caramelize slowly and evenly.
  • Don't stir the bananas too often. Stirring them too often will prevent them from caramelizing.
  • Add the butter and brown sugar mixture when the bananas are golden brown. This will help create a delicious sauce.
  • Cook the bananas for a few more minutes, until the sauce has thickened.
  • Serve the bananas foster immediately. They are best enjoyed hot.

Conclusion:

Bananas foster is a classic dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its sweet, caramelized bananas and rich, buttery sauce, it's the perfect way to end a meal. Whether you're serving it for a special occasion or just a weeknight treat, bananas foster is sure to be a hit.
