Ingredients

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 vanilla bean, split
6 ripe bananas, sliced 1/8 inch thick
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 cup sour cream

Steps:

Melt butter in large saute pan. Add vanilla bean and stir until the vanilla bean seeds begin to appear in the butter.
Add the bananas and stir about one minute. Add brown sugar and toss gently until bananas are evenly coated and sugar has melted, about 3 minutes. Remove vanilla bean and cool. This may be done early in the day. Do not refrigerate.
An hour or so before serving, whip the cream with the granulated sugar until firm peaks form. Beat in the sour cream just enough to combine.
