Bananas Foster Flambéed Bananas Foster with Caramel Rum Sauce and Vanilla Ice Cream Ingredients: 2 ripe bananas, sliced lengthwise 1/4 cup unsalted butter 1/2 cup brown sugar 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon 1/4 cup dark rum 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/4 cup banana liqueur (optional) Vanilla ice cream, for serving Directions: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in brown sugar and cinnamon, cooking until sugar dissolves and the mixture becomes syrupy—about 2-3 minutes. Carefully add banana liqueur (if using) and stir. Add the sliced bananas to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Cook for 1–2 minutes until the bananas are slightly softened but not mushy. Remove the skillet from direct heat. Slowly add rum to the pan. Using a long lighter, carefully ignite the rum to flambé. Allow the flame to burn off (about 30 seconds), swirling the pan gently. Once the flame subsides, stir in vanilla extract and remove from heat. Serve bananas and sauce immediately over scoops of vanilla ice cream.

In a large mixing bowl, combine sliced peaches, sugars, lemon juice, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch. Toss until peaches are well coated. Pour peach mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk just until dough comes together (do not overmix). Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough evenly over the peaches. Sprinkle turbinado sugar on top for added crunch. Bake for 40–45 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the peaches are bubbling. Let cool slightly before serving. Best enjoyed warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
