Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large bananas
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup dark brown sugar
- 0.25 cup dark rum
- 0.25 cup banana liqueur
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 servings vanilla ice cream or pound cake
Instructions
Peel the bananas and slice them into halves lengthwise, then cut each half into two or three pieces depending on preference. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Stir in the dark brown sugar until smooth and combined. Remove from heat.
Pour the butter and sugar mixture into the crock pot. Add the rum, banana liqueur, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Stir to combine.
Gently add the banana slices to the crock pot and stir carefully to coat them in the sauce without breaking them.
Set the crock pot to low and cook for 90 minutes, stirring gently halfway through to ensure the bananas are evenly coated in the sauce.
Once the sauce has thickened and the bananas are caramelized, turn off the crock pot.
Serve the bananas foster warm over vanilla ice cream or slices of pound cake. Drizzle with extra sauce from the crock pot and enjoy!
