Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup butter, cubed
  • 3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 medium bananas
  • 2 tablespoons creme de cacao or banana liqueur
  • 1/4 cup dark rum
  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream

Directions

  • 1. In a large skillet or flambé pan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Stir in brown sugar and cinnamon until combined. Cut each banana lengthwise and then widthwise into quarters; alternately, cut into 1/4-in. slices. Add to butter mixture; cook, stirring gently, until glazed and slightly softened, 3-5 minutes. Stir in creme de cacao; heat through.
  • 2. In a small saucepan, heat rum over low heat until vapors form on surface. Carefully ignite rum and slowly pour over bananas, coating evenly.
  • 3. Leaving skillet or pan on the cooking surface, gently shake pan back and forth until flames are completely extinguished; serve over ice cream.
