OMG is right!!!!<br/>This dessert is so decadent and yummy! I could eat the whole thing myself in one sitting. lol<br/>A truly easy, yet impressive recipe! Great for when youre having a bbq with friends or when you need a pick me up. lol<br/>I have bbqed banans with honey before, but never thought of adding ice cream to it. What a wonderful addition, though! I luved the hot cold contrast and the vanilla touch.<br/>THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this true classic with us, Peter!<br/>Made and reviewed for the Aus/NZ Recipe Swap August 2010.

We LOVE bananas and I'd really love to try these BBQd but sadly ;) I am BBQ-less. They were, however, fabulously flavoursome - as I had every expectation that they would be! - panfried. I panfried them in a little butter in a non-stick pan. The combined flavours of the honey, sugar and cinnamon: pure magic! Thank you, Peter, for this simple to make heavenly dessert. I can well imagine the Olympian gods, distracted for the while from pursuing earthly maidens, tucking into these! We enjoyed them with generous dollops of creamy Greek yoghurt. Perhaps that's where my images of Zeus came from? Made for ZWT 5.
