Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat.
Peel the bananas and slice them in half lengthwise.
Melt the butter in a small microwave-safe dish. Stir in the brown sugar and ground cinnamon to form a paste.
Brush the butter-sugar mixture generously over the cut sides of the bananas.
Place the bananas on the grill, cut side down. Grill for 2-3 minutes until caramelized and grill marks appear.
Flip the bananas and grill for another 2-3 minutes until softened but not mushy. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add the maple syrup and vanilla extract, then continue to whip until combined to form the maple cream.
To serve, place two banana halves on each plate. Add a scoop of vanilla frozen yogurt on top and drizzle with maple cream.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
