Photo: Bananas Flambee Recipe
Ingredients
- 1/2 stick butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- Pinch ground cinnamon
- 2 bananas, sliced in rounds and tossed with the juice of 1/2 a lemon
- 1/2 cup dark rum (recommended: Meyers)
- Vanilla ice cream
Directions
Melt the butter gently in a large saute pan. Add the brown sugar and stir to combine. Add the cinnamon and cook until the mixture is thick and bubbly. Toss in the bananas.
Turn the heat up to high, pull the pan off the burner and add the rum and tip into the flame to allow the flame to "JUMP" into the pan and set on fire! Do this carefully and respectfully but have fun, it's all about the show.
Spoon over ice cream and try not to eat it all yourself.

I love Ann's show and her receipes. However, something has got to be wrong with this one. I nearly burned my house down. 1/2 cup of rum is probably a lot more than you need. Most other recipes call for 1/4 cup for a much larger amount of dessert. Luckily my house and kitchen is still standing, but the taste is overwhelming with rum. Try 1/4 cup. It may work out better.
