Kid Friendly Banana Foster -Gluten Free



Many Banana Foster recipes call for Rum. I utilize this kid friendly and Gluten-Free option often. I usually make this in a pinch, when the kids and I are craving something sweet and decadent. Although it doesn't taste like it, it is easily prepared in 5-7 minutes from start to finish.


2 ripe bananas

1/2 stick butter or margarine

1/4 Cup Brown Sugar
 
Cinnamon




Peel bananas, slice in half and then lengthwise 1/2 inch thick.

Heat a non-stick skillet on medium high, add butter when it begins to bubble.

Add sliced bananas and a generous amount of cinnamon and about 1/4 cup brown sugar..eyeball it.

It should look like a light brown syrup, gently shake pan continually to mix as it cooks and thickens.
 
Be careful not to let it burn, on medium heat it only takes about 2-4 minutes to cook after the bananas are added.
 



Let it cool for a minute or so then pour over a bowl of Vanilla Bean Ice cream., and enjoy!
