Rum Bananas

Cultural Context

Originating in New Orleans, Rum Bananas, also known as Bananas Foster, was created in the 1950s and has since become a beloved dessert across America. Traditionally served flambéed, this dish showcases the delightful combination of caramelized bananas and rich rum, often paired with vanilla ice cream. Today, it remains a popular choice for special occasions and dinner parties, celebrated for its dramatic presentation and indulgent flavors.

4 servings
Servings4
4 tablespoons cultured, unsalted butter
1 cup light brown sugar
¼ cup Banane du Brésil or other good-quality banana liqueur
4 medium ripe bananas, peeled and halved lengthwise
¼ cup Patrón Añejo
1 pint premium vanilla bean ice cream
1 teaspoon smoked, flaky salt

dark rum

🥗Healthier: non-alcoholic rum extract

💰Cheaper: light rum

Non-alcoholic option for flavor without alcohol

1

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

2

In a 12-inch cast-iron skillet, combine the butter and brown sugar over medium-low heat.

3

When the sugar and butter have melted into a uniform mixture (about 5 minutes), remove from the heat and add the Banane du Brésil.

4

Stir gently to combine; the sauce will bubble up and steam.

5

Add the bananas cut-sides down to the sauce, then transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.

6

Bake for 20 minutes, or until the bananas are browned, softened and cooked through.

7

Remove the pan from the oven and return to the stovetop.

8

Using a large spoon or spatula, flip the bananas over so the glossy and caramelized cut sides are now facing up.

9

Add the Patrón Añejo to the pan and flambé by lighting the liquid with a long lighter or match.

10

Gently shake the pan until the flames subside.

11

Divide the ice cream among four wide bowls.

12

Top each bowl with 2 slices of banana and a generous drizzle of sauce.

13

Finish with a sprinkling of smoked salt and toasted slivered almonds, as desired, and serve.
