ingredients
- 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
-
Caramel Sauce
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3⁄4 cup warmed heavy cream
directions
-
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.
