Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 ripe bananas
8 large strawberries
1/4 cup orange juice
2 teaspoon unbleached cane sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Good quality vanilla ice cream
Real chocolate sauce
1/2 chopped nuts
Real whipped cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Leaving skin on, wash bananas thoroughly. Cut in half crosswise and then again lengthwise, ending up with four pieces from each banana. Cut strawberries in half. Whisk together orange juice, cane sugar, and cinnamon in a large bowl. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 3 hours. Grill bananas and strawberries cut-side down over medium-low heat about 2 or 3 minutes. Remove strawberries and set aside. Turn bananas over and continue cooking skin side down about 5 more minutes or until the skin pulls away from the banana. Remove skins from bananas and place 4 pieces into each serving bowl. Top with ice cream, then sauce, then whipped cream. Place 4 pieces of grilled strawberry on top. Garnish with nuts. Enjoy!
