Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 items ripe bananas
- 4 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 scoops vanilla ice cream
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium heat.
Gently melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave, ensuring it doesn't burn. Set aside.
Peel the bananas and slice them lengthwise in half. Be careful not to break them.
Brush the cut side of each banana half lightly with melted butter. This will prevent them from sticking to the grill and add flavor.
Place the bananas cut side down on the grill. Grill for about 3-4 minutes, or until you see dark grill marks.
Using a spatula, carefully flip the bananas over to the peel side and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the bananas are soft and slightly caramelized.
Remove the bananas from the grill and place them on a serving platter.
Drizzle each banana with 1 tablespoon of honey.
Sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon over each banana for an added burst of flavor.
Serve the bananas warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side.
Enjoy your delightful BBQ banana dessert!
