A Banana's Foster bottom layer adds a tasty twist on the traditional favorite. I make this the night before a bake the following morning. I was able to plate the casserole banana side up. This was my first time making this and my 8 year old son really enjoyed it. He gave me a "10".

Took this to a family brunch and it received pretty good reviews, though mainly from the kids. My DH did not enjoy it - I substituted rum flavouring and left out the banana liqueur to be more kid friendly - that may be why. I personally don't like to eat chocolate too early in the day, but I thought the flavours were good together. I would make this again but as a dessert and include the rum and liqueur.Reply
