Bananas Flambe Recipe

Recipe By Slurrp

Bananas Flambe is a classic dessert that combines the sweetness of ripe bananas with the rich flavors of butter, sugar, and rum. The bananas are sautéed in butter and sugar until caramelized, then flambéed with rum to create a deliciously boozy sauce. The dish is typically served warm and can be enjoyed on its own or paired with ice cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
