NUTTY BANANAS

Steps:

• Slice bananas in half lengthwise; cut each piece in half. Spread with mayonnaise; sprinkle with sugar and nuts. Serve immediately.

DRESSED BANANAS

Steps:

• Chop the peanuts into small pieces. They should be like the chopped peanuts you sprinkle on a sundae.
• Peel the banana, and cut into 3 pieces. Smaller bananas will make 2 sections.
• Rub the outside of the banana with a thin coat of mayo. Just enough for the peanuts to stick. Too much will just make them a goopy mess. You can use a brush for this, but I always just used my nice clean hands. It's just enough to make the banana shiny with the mayo coating. You may not use the entire 1 Tbsp of mayo, so don't worry if you have some leftover.
• Roll the banana in the chopped peanuts to completely cover. There should be an even coating of peanuts on the banana pieces, in a single layer.
• Put them on the serving plate, and wrap the plate with plastic wrap. Put them in the fridge until ready to eat. These are best if eaten the same day so the nuts stay crunchy!

BANANAS FOSTER

Steps:

• Add the butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and cream to a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat.
• Allow the butter to melt and continue to whisk while cooking until the sugar has melted and the sauce is smooth (about 3 to 5 minutes). You don't want to cook on too high heat or it will heat too quickly before the sugar fully melts.
• Add the bananas and allow to cook 2-3 minutes, to lightly soften the bananas.
• Remove the pan from heat and pour the rum over the bananas and sauce. Using a long lighter, ignite the rum. Gently shake or swirl the sauce around until the flames burn out, about 30 seconds. The flames will burn blue and can sometimes be very subtle.
• Spoon warm bananas and sauce over ice cream and serve immediately.
