Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 medium Ripe bananas
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 120 milliliters Milk
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 100 grams Dark brown sugar
- 120 milliliters Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 500 milliliters Water
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Peel and mash the ripe bananas in a separate bowl until smooth. Stir in the granulated sugar.
Gradually add the mashed bananas and milk to the dry ingredients, mixing until a soft, sticky dough forms. Do not overmix.
In a large saucepan, bring 500 milliliters of water to a gentle simmer.
Using a spoon, drop small spoonfuls of the banana dough into the simmering water. Cook the dumplings for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are puffed and cooked through.
While the dumplings cook, prepare the toffee sauce. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
Add the dark brown sugar to the melted butter and stir until combined and bubbling.
Slowly pour in the heavy cream, stirring constantly. Simmer the mixture for 2-3 minutes until thickened.
Remove the sauce from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Using a slotted spoon, carefully transfer the banana dumplings to serving plates or bowls.
Drizzle the warm toffee sauce generously over the dumplings before serving.
Optional: Garnish with whipped cream, chopped nuts, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra indulgence.
