SO YUMMY GRILLED BANANAS WITH CARAMEL SAUCE AND CREMA MEXICANA



So Yummy Grilled Bananas With Caramel Sauce and Crema Mexicana image

I found this in the LA Times Food Section years ago, and adapted it for a crowd. We make these when we go camping and we're sick of S'mores. We just bring a bunch of bananas and the components we prepared ahead of time and make them until we can't eat any more. Don't be tempted to use store bought caramel; home made sauce really makes a diference, and it's quick and easy to make. IMPORTANT: When you go to the store, you DO NOT want the Crema Agria - that's like sour cream. Crema Mexicana is like Creme Fraiche and tastes sweet, like heavy whipping cream.

Time 25m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 bananas, that are nice and yellow,no spots,but not green either
1 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon (more if you like)
1 (15 ounce) jar Mexican crema
1 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup warmed heavy cream

Steps:

  • Make caramel:.
  • Melt butter in medium saucepan over medium-low heat, then add brown sugar and whipping cream
  • Simmer over medium heat and stir occasionally (about 8 minutes).
  • Sauce is ready when it is golden brown; it will thicken as it cools.
  • Cool completely, then pour into a container (I use one of those squeeze bottles to take with our camping stuff).
  • It's OK to keep at room temp, but I would put in fridge if you want to keep longer than a couple of days.
  • Prepare bananas:.
  • Combine sugar and cinnamon.
  • Slice each banana in half lengthwise.
  • Roll each banana half in cinnamon sugar, until completely coated.
  • Grill coated bananas over hot coals (ideally, you will grill them after dinner, when the coals are nicely glowing; we don't want a raging fire here).
  • Grill bananas until the sugar begins to carmelize, but be careful; don't let them burn.
  • To serve, put two banana halves on a plate, drizzle with caramel sauce and serve with a dollop of crema Mexicana.
