Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 Tbsp butter
1/2 c brown sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spices
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
4 medium ripe bananas
oil for grill pan
1 pt vanilla ice cream

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat a grill pan or grill grate over medium heat.
  • 2. Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the brown sugar, salt, and pumpkin pie spice. Bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar has completely dissolved. Simmer until mixture thickens about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in the vanilla and set aside.
  • 3. Cut each banana lengthwise, leaving the skin on and brush with butter and brown sugar sauce.
  • 4. Oil the grill pan and arrange the bananas, cut side down, on the pan. Grill until caramelized, about 4 minutes. Turn the bananas and grill until the skins are blackened bananas are soft and warmed through, about 5 minutes more. Baste frequently with the sauce during the cooking process.
  • 5. Remove from grill to a serving platter and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream, drizzled with remaining sauce.
